Its been a long winter, but finally completed this engine. Took some pictures but most were blurry(Carribean beach sand in zoom lense). We got hit with another storm this weekend, but i managed to get this baby back in last night.

Only because 1.7 heads will only fit 1.7 cylinders. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Not a performance issue, just a physical inoperability issue. 1.7 heads can be flycut to work with the larger cylinders.

Only because 1.7 heads will only fit 1.7 cylinders. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Not a performance issue, just a physical inoperability issue. 1.7 heads can be flycut to work with the larger cylinders. Actually, flycutting will not help mate a 1.7 head to a non standard big bore cylinder, unless said cylinder is a 1.7 bored out to 96, in which case you are not asking for, but begging for a blown engine. Flycutting is the method of increasing ones compression and/or correcting chamber volume for equalities. However boring/cutting (as is common lingo) the head will open the bore to accept a non standard outer diameter cylinder size. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) |
