I have a 76 2.0l Djet in my 72. What mods can I do to bring this engine back up to the 95-96HP it had before the CA emissions mods were introduced?
thanks, James |

Other than the power draw of the pump, which is likely to be minimal, the air pump system doesn't cause any HP loss. Nor does the EGR, for that matter, and that keeps the cylinder temps down, which is a good thing. The Cap'n |

I read somewhere that my 1.7l 72 fuel injected non-CA puts out about as much HP as the 76 CA detuned 2.0l...what's your take on that one? thanks, j |

80 DIN HP for the 1.7; 88 HP for the 75-76 2.0.
So no. --DD |

96mm P&Cs will get you 1911cc displacement. Should get you pretty close, or even over.
Note that the 96es that fit 1.7 heads are rather thin at the top. It is usually recommended to use the 96es that are intended for 1.8 motors, and fly-cut the heads so they fit correctly. No case mods are needed for either of those kits. --DD |

Just keep in mind that you might be changing your ability to sell the car in states like California by changing the smog stuff and exhaust!
I know you are not in CA, but, if you decide to sell it will make a difference! |

I know you are not in CA, but, if you decide to sell it will make a difference! Thanks Jeff, You are right...we say we will NEVER sell a car, but I have sold quite a few I thought I never would part with. I plan to leave all the smog stuff on it. My long term plan is to put the 2.0l and matching tranny back in the 76 that will get restored over the next couple of years and then rebuild the 1.7l and tranny that orriginally came out of the 72 and put it back in the 72. That's why I am asking about how I can bump up the performance of the 1.7l on the cheap so I performs as well as or better than the 2.0l. The 2.0l only has 20k miles on it since it had a pro rebuild so it runs strong right now. SO when everything is all said and done. 1.7l in 72 matched up like it used to be and the 2.0l in the 76 with all of its smog junk just like it used to be. James So, the jug size we are talking about bumps the 1.7l up into the 1.9l+ range, is there a cam that I should be considering that will make it a little more torquey on the bottom end or is there a cam that I should be adding to this jug set just because? |

Wonder how this would work to help cool a race motor.....hmmm rich |
