1968 C1300 inter

Hi All, Does anyone know the cubic inch of the 6 cyl engine we have another old girl fire tanker done a exaust manifold gasket, also where to get it. Regards J.

It'd be 281 cu.in. I'd say ...standard Inter engine

Thank You ,I looked on ebay and one came up as 282 ci for inters 1958 to 1968 so not sure is the 281 the same or is it a typo?

Think the 282 was just a Later version ...all the same basic engine

The 282 is a heavier duty version of the 281...the 283 was a twin carb version for the Mk5 ACCOs.........In general ,a 282 had sodium cooled exhaust valves with positive rotation..........these valves were very expensive ,like $140 each in 1970,so anything like a Repco rebuild wont have sodium valves............the only motor sure to have sodium valves is one ex an army ACCO.

Pretty sure the first 3 digits of your Engine number will tell you what size block you have,!
For example AGD281xxxxxxx

But happy to be corrected..

Engine should be a 6-281.

Auto Surplus would probably have a manifold gasket. They are very good to deal with.
