Engine for 1980 E-12



Posted by John M. on January 27, 2000 at 14:14:06:

Greetings,

As the original owner of a 1980 E-12 with 2.7L engine,
I am wondering what's the best alternative sized
powerplant for a transplant? Mine has 165K mi. on it,
and even with a top-end retoration 8 yrs. ago, it
burns some oil and feels tired.
I'm looking for good, all-around performance and
reliability. Would the E-28 3.5L fit? What
modifications are needed? Any other suggestions?
Thanks.
