Hi everyone!
I'm from Moscow Russia and own 1972 'Volga' sedan - 4.8m long, no frame, 2500cc r4 and manual tranny [Russians call this car 'Barge' and consider it to be HUGE]. Here are the photos: http://e-g.comtv.ru/my24.jpg
Well, straight 4 isn't... Well, you know what i mean. And manual tranny.. hmm.. too. So, I'm thinking of ordering Ford' 200ci straight 6 like this one http://www.digisys.net/fordfan/Falcon/62Futura.htm with a C-3. The only question is if it fits...
Here you can see the engine compartment: http://e-g.comtv.ru/carcar3.jpg
As Volga's pistons are packed into cylinder sleeves, the engine is bigger than it would be of Ford' design. That's why I guess Ford' R6 would fit. So.. Could anyone please tell me the length of 200ci Ford' engine (with and without pump attached)?
Thank you in advance!!
