    No theres a 7 degree one for engine installs that are fitted at an angle, and straight ones for level installs-you'll need the corresponding bellhousing too obviously.


    '68 1100 Deluxe-bog stock soon to be a twincam rep.

    manta sump, 7 degree b/housing and inlet

    yukspeed sump. 0 degree b/housing and inlet

    just a tip dont buy 2nd hand engine mounts but get a new chassis mount kit so you can put the engine where ever you want it

    Are you cutting the bulkhead or chopping back of the head down?

    Quick question , Would and inlet manifold off a 2L 8 valve 20seh engine fit onto a c20xe ?

    i currently have a 2L 8 v in a chevette and want to go c20xe , just need to know what parts to gather up for swap over.

    thanks

    port shapes are different, spacings too iirc, so not a chance of being able to swap anything tbh from the 8v to 16v
