what's the difference between type one and type two engines, other than the obvious hp difference?

-thanks in advance

 

the type 2 has different heads and a different exhaust manifold, giving it 30 extra horsepower. the type 2 actually has 2 less ft lbs of torque, but that isnt noticeable.

other than the heads/intake manifold, and the 94-95 type 2 engines had the R-134a coolant instead of the R-12 system, they are virtually the same....the bottom end is the same, but the type 2 has a different flywheel setup.

 

dont forget the 6-sp tranny, too...

the 6 speed on legends is mostly for bragging rights. as far as gearing, it is roughly the same. 3rd gear is a little shorter i believe.. it is good for gas milage also, not all that much better, but maybe 2-300rpm difference at 80mph.

id rather have a 5 speed. less complicated, less weight, and much cheaper to fix if necessary.

 

exactly what is the difference in the two heads?

 

i have no clue.

 

where can i go about procuring Type-2 parts?

Anyone know where I can get ahold of a GenII C32 engine, tranny and ecu???

 

http://www.car-parts.com is the best place to find low mileage engines for legends, along with transmissions and ECUs.
