January 31, 201412 yr Try this one, Ford (UK) in their Granada range originally used the 2.5 or 3.0 V6 Essex engine to be replaced with the 2.8 Cologne lump. There were two major changes in internal design. What were they.
January 31, 201412 yr Hmmmmmm, OK, how about the BMC (British Leyland) A series engines, as fitted to many small cars including the Mini. Regarding the Mini, other than performance differences, bearings, crankshaft etc, there was one thing the Cooper S engine had that the basic Cooper or Mini didn't have. What was it. Do you give up on this one ?

January 31, 201412 yr Essex 90 degree V and Cologne was 60 degree V ? No, I believe they were both 60's, though I thought the Essex was 90. Other stuff.

January 31, 201412 yr Transam here's a V8 question for you. 2 unusual American V8s in the last 30 years had 60 degree Vs and crankshaft with offset big end journals. Which engines?

Hmmmmmmm, Ford did a 351 60 Clevland, and the old flathead was (I think), don't know if there is another unless I googly.
January 31, 201412 yr One is a Ford, but not the Flathead or Cleveland. I thought both of these were 90 degree V's?

January 31, 201412 yr Ford Taurus SHO 3.4L DOHC V8 developed with Yamaha and apparently not one of their best from the 90's. Cat 3408 18L V8 as used in some 80's trucks, 988B loaders, 631 scrapers, D8 dozers etc. They both have weird looking cranks.
