would the pinto engine out of a transit fit straight in my sierra?i know the gearbox does'nt but ive already got that.any addvise would be great.
cheers

 

yes but engine is low power version iirc not sure what umean about gearbox the transit used the same box different ratios i think

 

As said it will bolt straight in but the transit lumps were lower power

the transit pintos are lower compression, ripe for a turbo conversion, i had one in my old capri, a 202 block it was

 

Correct

 

been told its a 205 block so maybe its been changed.

 

if its a 202 then i would like to turbo it.where would i get exhaust a manifold from?

 

they are very rare but turbo technics used to make one, you could make one yourself as many have in the past.

Be careful - The Cossie 205s were carefully selected for wall thickness - make sure the cylinders are coded 2 or 3. The code is punched onto the block under the distributor. Thin walls are ripe for a block explosion

 

pinto turbo i mocked up about a year ago, never finished it because our garage went under

would've been good
