4.0 into a Gremlin

<< < (2/6) > >>

EAGLER:
i agree the simplest the better. carb engines are very reliable and easy to fix, and unexpensable too

Amc1320:
Getting closer!

Got the underhood area cleaned up and prepped. Swapped most everything over from one engine to the other. Painted the 4.0 AMC blue!!

Still working on the pilot bushing, there is a 55 thousandths of a diff OD between the 4.0 and 232 crank. Have a machine shop friend helping me with that one.

Should be ready to install soon, if I can just get a little time off from work!!









PS- that's not the carb we will end up using, its on there for reference so I can figure out linkage

Prafeston:
You guys sure are doing some good work lately! Mind if I just take that engine and put it in my Eagle instead? PLEASE!!!

IowaEagle:
Outstanding!  That will really wake that Gremlin up -- more HP than a stock 304 coupled with better low end torque.

vangremlin:
What distributor do you have on there?  Thanks.
