2.7 heads, will they also work on 2.2 or 2.4
Hello!!
I was just wondering if 2.7 heads would work on a 2.2 or 2.4 engine. I have newly rebuilt heads from a 2.7 and am wondering if I should sell them or keep them for a 2.2 or 2.4 rebuild in the future? I got them with a bunch of other stuff i bought. I think they will but want to double check and they probably have larger valves. Not sure if porshe has differnt size combustion cambers. Thanks for any help. Bruce |

they also are beveled out to the 2.7 bore size, so they won't work on a 2.4. the sealing surface on top of the cylinder, from the head gasket o ring, inward, would not touch the 2.7 head. however, a 2.4 head will work on a 2.7, and also raise the compression a bit, due to the lack of the bevel cut on the edge of the combustion chamber.
