Re: *****'s rebuild info?? OR/WA
Turn him on to: http://www.advanceadapters.com/catalog/catalog.html
so he'll have an idea of what engines to choose from, because it's a
safe bet the stock four banger will be cracked, as they all are, usually
very obvious a spider web of calcium deposits around the core plugs. V6
Buick, now Chevy are a nice fit:
http://www.apple.queensu.ca/cj3b/EngineSwap.html Or a sadly under
powered Pinto: http://www.apple.queensu.ca/CJ3B/Tech/PintoEngine.html Or
if he wants to cut a hole in the hood, and move the firewall back about
an inch, he could have a V8 and Advance or Novak will supply everything
needed, trans adapter, motor mounts, headers, and radiator, his shop
won't have to improvise a thing:
