Eurovan "Big Block" question
I have been away from this board for a while, but I remember some discussion about the Eurovan I5. Was it ever decided if it had mounting points to allow use outside of the transverse mounting?

There's a guy on motorgeek that's running one...
The bore is only 81mm but the stroke is 95.5mm
The key is to bore it out to around 82.5 to 83.5
83.5mm x 95.5mm = 2615cc!!
2.6L is a BIG 5cyl!
You can use an "NF" head and bore out the holes for the head bolts, the eurovan block takes bigger bolts.
The best part about the euro block is it's raised deck height and longer rods, this compensates for the BIG increase in stroke.
I was told with a properly ported 10V head you could achieve 200lbs. and 200hp!!!
I'm sure this aint the pic you're expecting:
