1964 95hp donor parts in 110hp engine

[Dobber1234]

I bought a 1964 110 hp engine in pieces. I have an opportunity to buy a 1964 95 hp engine for donor parts. What parts are interchangeable? Is it ther same with different Cam and Heads? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

The cylinder heads are different with the low horsepower engine having a cylinder head combustion chamber volume that produces an 8.0:1 compression ratio. The 110 hp engine heads have a combustion chamber volume that produces a 9.0:1 compression ratio. Both engines use the same crankshaft, engine cases, pistons and connecting rods to produce 164 CI displacement. The 110 hp and 150 hp engines are fitted with a harmonic balancer to protect the crankshaft from developing stress fractures or cracks. As an economy move, the low 95 hp engine only received a solid cast crankshaft pulley instead of a harmonic balancer. The distributor timing and advance curves were different. Both the 95 hp and 110 hp engines had the same single muffler exhaust, and I believe that the carburetors and air cleaner assembly/PCV systems were the same. The oil cooler was larger on the 110 hp engine.

I have attached a copy of the 1964 Chevrolet Corvair GM Heritage Center Specs publication, which provides details of the engine specifications.

The link below will provide you with a list of useful websites that are Corvair-related. Some of the links will lead you to an extensive technical library that will allow you to download shop manuals and other technical references in Adobe Reader format at no cost. There is also a link that will help you to locate nearby CORSA (Corvair Society of America) club chapters. While the Corvair Forum can be very helpful as you work on your Corvair, having local friends and contacts in your region who are knowledgeable about the Corvair can also be very helpful. These family-friendly CORSA chapters often offer picnics, group scenic drives, technical training and assistance, car shows, and competition events that can greatly enhance your enjoyment of Corvair ownership. You will also find a list of essential Corvair parts suppliers. Clark's Corvair Parts is the biggest and oldest Corvair supplier in the world. You will find a link that can provide you with a series of videos that amount to a tour of the Clark's Corvair Parts facilities. I think you will be amazed at the quality of the reproduction components they offer — particularly the interior carpeting and re-upholstery items. Parts suppliers such as this truly make our Corvair hobby possible.
