Swapping 9N and 8N engines

[John Ayres]

Are these engines interchangeable? Thanks, John Ayres

all 9n, 2n, 8n engines will bolt to all 9n-2n-8n trannies, and all front bolsters from all 9n-2n-8n's bolt to all N engines.

so yes.. engines will swap.

you might have to get creative with generaror and coil and throttle linkage placement and setup and all.. but the engine will bolt right in.

Engines will swap no problem, however the bolsters are different, not that you can't make them work. If your a purist you'll want the correct bolster but if your swapping engines your probably not a purist! Correct me if i'm wrong!

I'll bet 1/5 of 9Ns are running 8N engines.

(quoted from post at 10:21:22 10/09/13) I'll bet 1/5 of 9Ns are running 8N engines.

The 9N in my shop is quite happy with it's 8N transplant :roll:
