I have been working my tail off and saving money to build my 2litre motor this summer, so far i have saved $2500, If should have another $1500 in a month or so. However, I have been seeing 2.7-6 and 2.4-6 on ebay, the recycler and other places from $850.00 - $4000.
My question is - is it worth upgrading to a 2 litre from my 1.7, when a couple of thousand dollars more, i could get a six? And what is involved (price wise) to convert it from a 4 to a six. Give me some feedback - Craig |

It wasnt quite that cheap. I bought a already running converted car from the old classifieds and yanked the engine/trans out and sold the roller. Bought a real tank and lines... installed the RJ mount and made it run (barely)
The new owner is on here. His name is Tim. He got what I felt was fair deal for a super clean chassis/decent paint. He ended up rebuilding the engine (its on his avatar) I wish he had more time for the BBS. I know he has engineering skills that could help us out on some new parts. B |
