The Chevy LUV used a 1.8 Liter engine thru 1981. The 1.8 is visually different than the Chevette engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Geiger Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 There are enough 4 cylinder engines out there in scale that one should be able to find on that reasonably resembles the Luv engine. Recently or easily available kits include Datsun and Toyota and even the Dodge D50 Mitsu pickups. Yes, there may be a scale difference but as long as it looks right sitting in the bay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
