Does the 2 1/4 fit on to the bellhousing of an 80" series 1 gearbox. The 1.6 in my new project has long gone but I have been offered a good series 3 lump.
As long as you fit the series 1 or 2 clutch to the series 3 engine it will fit fine. Carb is on the otherside of the engine so you will have to extend fuel lines n thotle linkages, other than that its easy.
And swop the engine mounts over,
Its a 1950 with narrow front and rear springs.... The front axle is missing the short half shaft complete so was going to throw a complete other one on.
Is this the same for a front axle.
I believe the mounting points are different on the later axles due to the narrow spring set up being biased to the edge of the chassis.
