Is there a difference in a 2.0L out of a bus as opposed to a 2.0L out of a 914? I was under the assumption that a bus engine had different heads. I don't know where I heard that. Maybe I just made that up.

The 2.0 bus heads are worth scrap $ and nothing more. Only because they have been so heat soaked and used up pushing the big box around that the aluminum casting is fatiqued.
I quit working withused bus heads ~4 years ago. New (or even slightly used) AMC 2.0 bus heads can be worked into great heads for a 2056 (or a 2316 for that matter). The busses have a 15cc dish in the piston, but the 2.0 bus heads have ~49cc chambers compared to the ~58cc 2.0 914 heads which also have smaller dish pistons, ~7cc's in the U.S. IIRC |
