(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) IMHO - Maybe look at modifying the kit instead. |

A guy just sold a complete EA with injection on craigslist here. Said it had 10K since rebuild. I should have bought it...100 bucks. Not saying yours is worth more or less, just one though on price.

Google for that & see what folks are asking now for 1.7's, which is less than even just 6 months ago due to the bad economy. IMHO - the Type IV is a far better & stronger, more advanced & reliable engine, with more upper limit capacity for up-building. It's by far preferred by most over the T-1, unless you're jamming it into a Bug. Google for Jake Raby's "MassIVe" upbuilt Type IVs in GA, FAT Performance's here in Orange CA, etc. They're able to build anything from hot street engines at 110-165 hp (depeding on the build & fuel system), up to Racers at 250+ hp out of the T-4s! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif) As with everything, it's how much you want to pay for the mill! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Fiberglass is easy & cheap to modify to adapt to fit a better hot engine, & if it were me - I'd just move/adjust the rear tag frame out to accommodate a Raby 2270 or 2314 or more! Cheers & Good Luck! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

I have a couple of type 1s laying around, interested in a trade? I would probably rebuild either one of them but all the bits are there. The one you want is a 1600 dual port.

I've got parts of a 1.7 that I'm trying to figure out how much they are worth. |
