Even then the engine code is no sure way to tell engine size, since it may have been rebuilt to a larger displacement, sometime in its life. The only true way to tell is to measure the piston or cylinder. 85.5mm = 1600 87mm=1641 90.5mm=1776 Related Links Enter the largest automotive community on the planet! |
