Engine conversions

[Euan McDonald]

Hi All,
I have been down both paths on the subject of engines, when I rebuit my C15A I rebuilt the 216 & converted the bearings to slippers for easy replacment. After driving it for 14 years the engine is getting tired & it's time to re-think the options. I now have a Chev 235 Blue flame engine to go in over Christmas, but after driving the Gun tractor with a Chev 292 I now wonder if I should fit a 292 instead.
The other project I still have on the go is a F15 with a 302 ford v8 & c4 auto trans. I like the idea of keeping the engine configuation the same eg, Ford -v8 to Ford v8 & Chev 6 to Chev 6 & the other option to consider is 12 volts over 6 volts.
Thats the end of my say,
Euan.
