What 4 cylinder & 6 cylinder engines have been kitted


Recommended Posts

  • 69NovaYenko changed the title to What 4 cylinder & 6 cylinder engines have been kitted

That's a pretty broad question. Can you narrow the field a little bit (old or newer engines, foreign or American, for what purpose?). The answer will be in the hundreds.

Here's a random few;
Ford 2.3 l inline 4 - MPC '79 Mustang
Ford 2.3 turbo - Monogram Mustang SVO
Ford 2.0 l inline 4 - MPC Pinto
Lotus Twin Cam 1600 - Tamiya Europa
Renault Crossflow 1800 - Tamiya Alpine
Jag 4.2 XK inline 6 - Revell XKE
Jag 3.4 XK inline 6 - Monogram XK120
Chrysler 225 Slant 6 - AMT Deora
GM 4.3 l (?) v-6 - Revell ASA Camaro
Porsche 3.0 flat six - Fujimi
VW 1200 flat four - Tamiya
Austin Healey 2.6 l inline 6 - Revell Austin Healey 100-6
GM 1.4 l inline four - MPC Chevette
AMC 258 cid inline 6 - MPC Pacer
Lotus 910 2.2 l turbo inline four - Monogram Lotus Esprit 
Ford 200 cid inline 6 - JoHan Maverick
...and many, many more.

I think that the Revell Mercury Cougar kit had a V6, this is the one that shared the basic body with the Turbo and V8 Thunderbird models. The Revell '68 Firebird also offered the OHC six cylinder as an option to the 400 engine in the kit.
