Title: 843 parts for an 807 and 697?
Post by: Lyngeled on Saturday,October 30, 2021, 10:17:37 AM

Hello,
I like to find out if the internal parts from the 843/a6m can be used in a 708? And the 697?

There is an add here with two 843 and another type I don't know about (and V6's). Are they usable in an Europa? :

These are the best guides for what fits where:

Neither of the hemi engines have the long cameo drive a rear mounted water pump and alternator that are used on a Europa.  Both have a single, two-barrel carb so probably will not have high compression.
