2.6cyl engine

Hi,

I have a 2.6cyl engine is this worth anything non-running or if it was running? And what are peoples opinions on these engines? I love to hear what people say.......

Thanks,

Daniel

2.6 cylinder. engine. a rare thing if ever i heard of one

Dint they put them in the gaylander? already bust.

nah they put the left over 1.4 cylinders in the gaylander

I have one and have a few options:

1) Sell as is non-working.
2) Have fun... get it working.. and sell.
3) Fix and use it myself, though I like 2.25 being cheap and simple and common.... I don't know too much about the 6cyl apart from being more expensive on parts, they burn exhaust valves but are more powerful?

you have a 2.6 cyl engine?? pictures please

is the .6 of a cylinder .6 deep or .6 wide

ooo! i took it to be .6 of the volume of the others

hmm could be, i took it that it was .6 of a cylinder, maybe we are both wrong

am still waiting fer the picture

why dont yer show him your piccy while we are waiting

This is a picture of the engine in all it's glory..... or not as the case may be for anyone who's interested!

that looks more like a 4 or 6 cylinder engine to me

So this is going to continue..... ok ok, it's a 2.6litre 6cyl engine....... has anyone got an answer to the actual questions? Pwetty pwease......

what was the question again

Was there a question?

So what are the 2.6 litre 6 cyl inline n/a engines (just so you know what I'm talking about ) like.... and what should I do with mine?

My immediate thoughts are 1 or 2 above.

Anyone?

Fix the 6cyl and throw your 2.25 away. you wont regret it.

What makes you say that? Do you use one yourself, or have you heard good things?

well the 6 cyl injun is more expensive to run. very poor mpg. about the same as a v8!

is more expensive to maintain/rebuild as its got 2 extra cyls and its much rarer than the 2.25. which are common as muck and fairly cheap.

in its heyday LR were making 60000 series per annum, i wonder how many of those were 6 potters? not that many i guess?

but the 6 pot is a nice engine. as the yanks say, you cant beat cubic inches.
