Is the Engine tin all the same and interchangeable for all years and all motors...
4cyl only 1.7 1.8 2.0
Full Version: Engine tin Question
Joe-
Why are you asking this, are you going to be the first to convert from a 6 back to a 4???? hahaha
I'll be interested to hear other responses to this, but it is my understanding that the tin over the cylinders and heads is different, but the other pieces are the same.

70-74 tin top and bottom is the same except for:
2.0L top tin is different due to the spark plug holes location
73-74 bottom tin is different due to the sideshifter rod
75-76 bottom tin is altogether different due to the HE changes

Most of the sheetmetal was the same or very similar. There were minor differences in the rear piece where fittings and stuff passed through. The only differences in the top pieces was where the plugs went through. As said before, the 2 liter was on the side and the 1.7 and 1.8 had it on top.

No going back... Just have some engine tin in the garage that needs to be cleaned out and not really sure what I have.

Joe-
Yep, we'll be there for sure! Already have our suite reserved. We had such a great time last year meeting everyone, there was no way we were going to miss the ECR '05!!!
Oh, and by the way, let me know about the tin you have kicking around, I have been needing to repair the areas on mine that were cut out for the AC. Email a pic and price!
Have you had your car out on track this year?
