WTB 3.0L/3.2L engine questions
Even though my mechanic is going to help me in my search and purchase, does anyone have some good technical/performance questions I should ask the seller, or things to look out for when buying an engine. Thanks in advance.
Rather than rebuild my 74 Carrera engine I want to buy a different and keep the 2.7L so as to have a numbers matching car if I ever sell it. |

A 3.0 can be a straight install, a 3.2 has to cut the chassis for the control harness.
You ll need 25.5 bars in the rear to hold the extra weight. Bruce |

Build up another 7R mag case and keep it light.

Contact Henry Schmidt at Supertec for a nice 2.7, properly rebuilt.
