Technical Rebuilt 650 for a '71 -500?

[John Fallon]

Does anyone exchange motors for upgrades, like a 650 for an old 500, out of a 1970 500...? I am in Florida-USA

Hello,

Yes, there are a couple of threads about putting a 126's 650 engine into the classic 500.

If you would like to contact me direct [email protected] I will go through the proceedure with you, try to point out some of the pitfalls and ways around them. There are a number of 500 owners in your part of the world---would probably benefit you if you could make contact with them---if nothing else than for a 'coffee and chat' and discuss the highs and lows of running one of these little 'fun machines'---probably still one of the best 'city-cars' ever designed
