*energy* Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 would a 2.8 royale engine fit into a mk1 cavalier easily? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyc Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 You'll need to remove the front cross member and use a different trans and prop but yeah they fit, Google TE2800, they are all A series but you'll get the idea, oh and brakes/suspension will need upgrading Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantadoc has most of the info you need! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyc Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Isn't the very front cross memeber between the chassis legs in the way of the front pully on a straight six? Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you were referring to the subframe/cross member. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiney_norman Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 A Monza GSE engine is exactly the same work to fit but is a 3.0 and comes fuel injected. Unless you've been given a free rotten Royale there's not a lot of point using a 2.8 on a carb! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
