Pulled a 2.5 SOHC today as the previous owner ran it low on oil = rod knock.  What other years have the oval single port exhaust port?

Thanks, Larry

I would assume that car says PZEV on the back.  Anything wrong with the heads?

Still ran fine, no apparent damage but I have not pulled it apart yet.  It only had about a quart of oil in it.  (Kid that I got it from, yea I went over my oil change interval and when I was racing another car the Oil light came on)  Expensive oil change for him.

 

I pulled the engine yesterday.  I don't remember seeing PZEV on the back but it was hit in the rear so the trunk lid may have been changed out when it was repaired.

Some of the 04 production for the Ca. emissions standards were pzev but not marked on the body as such.

IIRC only the late 04 and some 05 were of this irregular (H6 twin header design) exhaust type.
