Did you do the rebuild or buy it that way?  I’ll be in Charlotte tomorrow. 

 

Thanks,

I bought the complete engine from a resto shop in Atlanta. The first thing I did when i got it though was have a local engine builder go through and check everything out. He dismantled the engine and mic'd the crank and it was good and the bearings are new. He also checked the bores and ring end gaps and again, everything measured out nicely. 

 

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Do those pistons require an E12 head ? Thank you Richard 

[jerry-02less]

I think they require a 2.0 head

Yes, E12 for the Piano Top Pistons.

The piston domes are 6.8mm high - these are not the 4.5mm US piano top versions. Not sure if that makes a difference or not. Just want to make sure everyone is aware.

I'm having trouble believing it to be a Tii engine.  Timing chain cover is an std carb engine cover.  I don't see any oil return opening for a KF pump oil return.  With 2 new pistons, do they weigh the same as the other 2?  The crank pulley looks like one for a E21 chasis.   These questions need before it is worthy of a Tii engine listing.

According to the vin # stamped that block belonged to a Tii

[2double02]

I think he also means block bored plus 2 versus only 2 new pistons.

The KF pump oil line a̶c̶t̶u̶a̶l̶l̶y̶ ̶r̶e̶t̶u̶r̶n̶s̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶t̶i̶i̶ ̶o̶i̶l̶ ̶f̶i̶l̶t̶e̶r̶ ̶h̶o̶u̶s̶i̶n̶g̶.̶ ̶

 

That's a standard '02 water pump also.

 

I believe it's a tii block -- that someone wished to use in a standard 2002.

 

Cheers,

That should mean 9.5:1 compression in a stock head.  I believe that is standard Euro tii configuration.

Ray, what are talking about, the oil line from the filter housing is the feed line, the drain back is a hose that fits onto a nipple not unlike the dipstick tube nipple. You can see on the block where someone has removed the nipple, tapped the hole and installed a threaded plug.   Someone was probably going to use this with carb or carbs.  With the head stuff that this fellow is selling, a couple of good 40 dcoe;s, a worked over head and a good exhaust, this could be one sweet little engine

 

Thanks, Rick
