Title: 2.3 conversion in '73 Pinto
Post by: critracerx on September 29, 2005, 01:28:12 AM
I have a '73 Pinto Wagon with a very tired 2.0l and a C4 Trans.
Any advise on putting a 2.3l in the 73 chassis???
Will the bellhousing and converter swap from 2.0 to 2.3???    Will the late model engine mounts and brackets install on the earlier frame rails???

Any advise woud be appreciated.

Thanks
