Hi,
Does anyone know anything about these engines ? I have tried to look up some info about the history of these engines but I find extremely little. The only thing I found was that the 270 engine were prone to crank failure if overreved. I did not find out if all three engines belong to the same family, but sort got an impression that the 270 had the same bore and stroke as the L4, and some feeling that the 270 was kind of a modernized L4.
The reason for the crank issue I guess was that the 270 has only 3 main Bearings from what I understood.
I will be greatful for any help and or links to some info.
Bill
