Question for the Gurus,


1. How hard is it to change a wiring harness on an early '62 type 34?

2. Will a dual port engine fit on an early (same car) car bay?

Thanks in advance,

Martin

If the bay is like the early notch, you will have to dimple the inner side panels for the carb to fit. I had to do this in my early notch when i put in a 1600 dual carb engine. later, they opened up the bay a bit more for the dual carbs.

The wiring harness goes through the rockers so that will be a challenge, it can be done but it will take work. I'm sure you can handle it. Yes a dual carb engine will fit, at least by the looks of this picture.


Pelle has a couple more detailed photos in his gallery.
