Has anyone had an A12 and a similar A13 on the same dyno? I'd like to see how the additional 7mm of stroke in the A13 helps the torque numbers.
Thanks, Peter
While it is clear from your location details & the stroke measurement in your first post, that you are refering to the 1974 US model B210's A13 engine, it is desirable that you are aware that there are in fact two different A series A13 engines.
The B210 engine is a one year only, ... US-only, version & is the first of the tall blocks, however there is also an Asia-only version from about 1980 which is little more than a later type A12 with a 76mm bore instead of the A12's 73mm bore.
In fact, the US only A12A engine that saw life in the US model 210 car [B310] is also little more than the same A12, but with a 75mm bore, which means that there are three versions of the short stroke engine, being A12, A12A & A13.
When writing, or even reading about the A13 engine, just be aware that there are two completely different versions within the same A series family.
