Hi Pere,
Sad to report, like Eric said, the white Jetfire engine has heads from a 1962 two barrel carburetor, low compression, plain F-85 engine, not a Cutlass or Jetfire. I don’t believe the block is Jetfire either. Someone has put a Jetfire induction system on this engine to appear like a real Jetfire engine and intake system.

Looks like that one is not a Jetfire engine either. You may post a picture of all the parts. Maybe we could point out some Jetfire specific parts if there are any? I guess you may already know what you are looking for since you have another Jetfire.

Hi Pere,
I would agree that that is the best answer. -
Cyril replied to the topic Jetfire france in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 6 years, 1 month ago
ok the best would be to find another jetfire engine. for the red because the white and all original and we want to reassemble it as original

Hi Pere,
The simple answer is yes. You could replace the 4 barrel carburetor system with a turbocharged intake and induction system. As Eric stated, it would require all the parts unique to a Jetfire engine to be found and installed. Not being sure of your intentions, you have all of these parts on your Jetfire engine on the white car and could…[Read more] -

Just have to gather all the parts but you can for sure convert it back to turbo. Hopefully the other engine is the turbo engine. You may have some of the parts to convert it back if you got parts with it. The exhaust manifolds, fluid tank, air cleaner, valve covers, and turbo system can be located if you don’t have them. I have not got a quote yet…[Read more]

Hi Pere,
Yes, tour new Jetfire looks great in the pictures! I see that it has the same power steering option as mine too. They appear to be twins from the Lansing factory.
Your engine heads (S 050316) are for a 1961 F-85, 2 barrel Rochester carburetor with low compression of 8.75 to 1. The 1961 heads have numbers that started with S 001001, the…[Read more] -

Hi Pere,
Great find! Not easy to find a Jetfire in Europe! Your new Jetfire was made one week before mine and is the same color with a white vinyl top and silver/gray interior. It was made 169 Jetfire’s before mine. I had to look in my garage to be sure mine was still there! lol
Please post a picture of the engine, under the hood.
Thanks for the news, Jim -
