Engine change

[barry]

Engine change. What problems might arise if I put in a 1600 cross flow in to a moris van? I brought this engine thinking that it was a 1300, I have just discovered that it is a 1600. According to the cylinder casting head number, which is 37, Unlike the 1300 which is 33. I am in need of a prop and a carboreter plus gear stick. Has any body out there got any good advise to give.
Thank you

Cross flow what ?? A series ?? Fiat? Lancia? Ford ?? Does the van already have non-A series engine fitted ?

A 1098cc Fits a Van easy to fit there is even a book on it by Haynes

Ford 1600 crossflow? If so what gearbox/ sierra type 9 5speed? I believe jlh may be able to supply drawings of how one is fitted, single downdraught or twin webbers?

Down-draught webber, often come up on ebay. And yes it will need stronger half shafts or a mk2 escort rear axle.
