I have no idea if this is possible and doesn't have much to do with this thread
but it does have to do with a 225/231 so here goes. When and if I am going to
put a V-6 in my 2A my intention was to leave the transmission and t-case alone
as to not disrupt my drive shafts and do modifications elsewhere. I don't know
I think maybe thats what Chuck did, problem is the V6/V8 to T90 requires
an adapter that's 2.5" thick and moves the engine forward to far.
about the layout of the V-6 but given the fact that there is only 3 cylinders
per side I think this would provide adequate clearance at the axle. Of course
the other problem is firewall but I was just hoping that would work out and
lastly the steering I was hoping could be routed acordingly. Just my thoughts
With the V6 positioned right the original steering fits without mods.
The firewall requires a small mod just like the factory CJ5 V6.
of which I don't even know if it is possible. My other thought since I have
never seemed to run out of power on the trail is a suped up f-head. Like a
performance cam from clifford which widens the torque range, a header, the weber
I currently have, perhaps port and polish the heads, and throw on an electronic
ignition. Who knows so many options?!
Built to the max the 134 will never match the power of a stock V6, just
to big of a difference in cubic inches.
