Cyl head for a 2.0L
« on: November 27, 2018, 05:43:34 PM »
I'm trying to find a head for my 73 with a 2.0....  after months of bad head after bad head I thought I got when a place called Quality auto parts,, they sent me a nice head with 4 cam bearings and my head has 3 cam bearings...  I looked in my shop manual and it says the head with 4 cam bearings is for a 2.3L...  Can someone confirm that there is only one head for a 2.0L and does have 3 cam bearings....  does anyone know where I can get a good head for my 2.0????

2.0 has 3 cam bearings, 2.3 has 4.

What problems have you had with the heads you are buying..

 I know a fellow in denver who has a complete 2.0 and several folks here have complete 2.0 engines for not a lot of money.. check the  posts about 2.0 engine enthusiasts.. you can prolly find one..
