Excusing my ignorance, can somebody tell me how easy is it to upgrade a 4 cylinder engine in an LH torana to a 6 or 8 cyl? Do the engine mounts align? Or what modifications are required?
Thank you

You'll need to change the engine crossmember. Sounds hard but it's not that difficult - 6 x bolts, steering and brake lines. Easy whilst the engine is out. Best way to go is to get a complete UC Torana 6cyl or Starfire 4 crossmember and fit it. Will total |
