In Reply to: Euro M6 Questions posted by Keith on September 09, 2000 at 12:17:37:


I am close to finalizing a deal for a Euro M6 smashed in rear. I am going to transplant engine trans rad ecu wiring harness and diff. Into 84 633csi super body. Any thoughts on what the value would be after or do people think ill of such a venture?
Questions
1- what is the gas milage hwy on this engine?
2- Is this engine smooth?
3- IS what I have read 0 to 60 in 6.1 and top end of 156 out of line?
4- What is the cylinder compression suppose to be?
Thanks
Keith

You definately shouldn't buy it as an investment.
The engine is heavier requiring larger springs
and probably heavier sway bars.
You'll also need a larger radiator.
Exhaust will probably have to be changed.
156 mph in a 633 - you should consider better
brakes as well.

It's probably a neat project but it'll cost you
and that money will be gone.
