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 |

A windage tray is fine if you do the mods. Hopefully you haven't tossed the seals as they are NLA cept used.
Early W engines don't have the bossing for the tray but later E code do. These cases are stronger with better internal webbing and support for the cylinders and stay straighter. Yes, stay away from the bus cases unless its early 1.7L one. Just stay with 2056 (2.1L) if you are going to use the Djet FI as it get much more involved going to the other systems. Isn't a 120HP enough? I think so for most streetable 914's...plus it still can get 25-30mpg at 75 all day long. Look at the pic for the mods of the tray holes. easy to do.
