stock_rolla Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 mate your motor should be a k4-c. it should be imprinted into the block on the drivers sie of the motor, and looking at some of the specs of the engine, i would say it is a k4c. they're are a good engine. mines done 142,000 km, first time around and no rebuilds.

irokin Posted October 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 4K-C dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xany Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 (edited) the C stands for Carby...... hmmm......i wonder weather that would make mine a 5K - W.......hehehehe..... W = Weber... Edited October 19, 2004 by Xany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwarf Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Actually I thought the C was just a designaton given for emissions friendly engines, possibly C for California, the first place they really started cracking down on this sort of thing? 3K-B was the high compression twin carb motor, and there was a 3K-d as well...... *shrugs* Thoughts?

demuire Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Yes, "C" was for "California", and has to do with the emissions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xany Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 (edited) meh.....i still reckon its easier to remember that c = carby.... hehehe....even though its wrong.....its still right in a way....buggered if i'll be saying that my engine is related to america. just for confirmation.. Engine Codes C = emission package (California) Edited October 19, 2004 by Xany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Hardware Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 45kw at the flywheel. I've still got the original showroom booklet from back in 1980. I'll crack it out one day and post some more specs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 I'm not so sure the "-C" in 4K-C means california emissions. the americans had air injection pumps on their engines. these pump air into the exhaust ports of their engines, to dilute the exhaust gas emissions. we didn't get them on our 4K-C's. their 4K-C is different to our 4K-C.

irokin Posted November 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 U is japanese emissions... R = air injection So the Cali 4K-C should really be a 4K-RC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitephyre Posted November 3, 2004 Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 (edited) not as restrictive i think nicko not that i know or anything, just a guess :jason: cause yeh, the engine in my panelvan is actually labelled as a 4K-U Edited November 3, 2004 by NiteP]-[yRe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irokin Posted November 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 Doesnt the 4K-U have dished pistons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted November 3, 2004 Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 yup would be a good engine to decompress for forced induction, using an earlier head. attached pic: 4k-u pistons on left, 4k-e on right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
