For the sake of giving any restorers out there a chance I am willing to trade my '72 XS2 engine for a '74 or newer engine.
The XS2 engine is a 306, which is a revised 256 engine. These are sought after for restoration of the early model XS.
I would be willing to swap it for a newer 447 type engine.
The motor I have is siezed but has some slight movement, it is also missing the left side cover but some with a tested charging system.
It was a spare motor for a side car rig and has had an oil cooler attached to the oil feed for the head.
The only catch is I am located in Australia.
Just thought I would post this up to see if there is any interest.
