Here is some information I received during my ongoing quest to 
     identify my V6 engine. Mine has the UX code, so it must be a 2600cc.
     
     For all you engineers out there, what is the conversion factor to 
     convert cc's to cu's?

Fellow Capri fans,
     
Yesterday a question arose regarding Capri engine identification. All 
Capris have an engine code stamped in the "Motor/Engine" area on the ID 
plate under the hood, and also on the engine block. Here is a list of 
all the Capri engine codes I know:
     
     Nominal                        Where  First Last
Code Displ.  Type Cyl Name     C.R. Used   Year  Year Notes
     (cc)
     
HYF  3000    V    6   Essex    ?    Europe ?     ?    Capri II
L1   1600    I    4   Kent     8.0  USA    1970  1971 28mm carburetor? 
L4   1600    I    4   Kent     7.5  USA    1971  1972 25mm carburetor? 
NA   2000    I    4   SOHC     8.2  USA    1972  1974
NB   2000    I    4   SOHC     9.0  USA    1971  1971 
NE   2000    I    4   SOHC     ?    Europe ?     ?
PX   2800    V    6   Cologne  8.2  USA    1976  1977 Possibly 1974 also 
UX   2600    V    6   Cologne  8.2  USA    1972  1973
YA   2300    I    4   Lima     9.0  USA    1976  1977
     
I'd like to build up a complete list, so if you have any additions or 
corrections please pass them along.
     
     
This is a 2600cc low compression (8.2:1) engine. The "UX" is the engine 
identification, U for 2600 and X for low compression. "ML" is a date code, 
where M is 1972 and L is the month (I can't tell which without consulting a 
reference book that is at home). The 5 digits are simply the last 5 digits 
of the donor car's Vehicle Identification Number. 
 
Be seeing you,
