in building a big 2.o liter (probably will be a 2.1 liter when done) we find the engien case is worn out. What differences is any are there in useing a 1.7 or 1.8 case for the build? I understand some cases do not have the windage tray. any other differences?
also what are recommended brands of pistons. I am looking for a big bore more than likely (2.1 liter) to run with the stock D-jet thanks |

But you have to ask why you want the windage tray. Unless you modify it, it can keep oil from getting back into the sump quickly. I got rid of mine when I rebuilt my motor and put the tuna can on. For what its worth, my 2056 was made from a bus 1.7. I had to grind the registers flat, and there are some other oddities (have to use a modern, short VDO oil temp sensor for the bus case) but it works just fine. Zach |
