: Hi Jason-
: Regarding your mention above of
: wanting-needing a MK2 engine block for
: rebuilding... I've got one that's been
: sitting in my workshop more years than
: I can count, and I'd like to sell it to
: someone that can use it. The GT6+ it
: came from sat out in a field for about
: 10 years before I bought it, and was
: pretty rusted out. The engine did run,
: I started it up before pulling it out
: of the body. (which ended up scrapped
: after stripping) Last year I sold the
: carbs and dist to another member here
: on the forum. Otherwise the block is
: still complete (flywheel/clutch, water
: pump, etc). Stock internals far as I
: know (and says the last owner), and a
: chrome valve cover is all I see added.
: The serial no. is KD51195F, and I can
: post photos if needed.
: I'll sell it to you (or anyone
: else interested) for $100, plus you pay
: the shipping. I'm in the Oak Ridge TN
: area, and can deliver it to local
: (Knoxville) truck shipping docks in my
: pickup.

: Hi,
:
: I cannot answer all your questions.
:
: I believe that the Mk2 started using a
: cylinder head based on the same casting
: as the TR6 but shaved in height (others
: will have to confirm when this
: changed). The Mk1 GT6 head has
: intake/exhaust ports that appear in a
: straight line across the
: "right" side of the head
: while the TR6 style head uses staggered
: ports where the intake and exhaust
: ports are not inline with each other.
: Therefore, you will not be able to use
: Mk1 intake/exhaust manifolds on a later
: head and vise versa.
:
: However, I think you could put a
: complete Mk2 head with its manifolds on
: the Mk1 block or a Mk1 head and
: manifolds on a Mk2 block.

: Hello-
: I've got a gt6+ 1970 with a MK1 engine
: fitted. I am restoring it and planned
: on rebuilding the engine-- to get it
: closer to a MK2 engine, can heads be
: swapped from MK1 to MK2? Will
: manifolds/carbs fit? Any other hardware
: that may need to be switched over?
: Thanks in advance!!
