I had another topic going regarding my plan to build a 2056 from a spare 1.8 motor. Initially, I wanted to find out what was necessary to make my existing D-jet on my running 1.7 work with the future motor.
I learned that I need quite a few 2.0 D-jet components to make it work...and then from what I understand in reading Jake Raby's data on the 2056, I'll still max out at around 115 hp with the FI. So if I were to revitalize the L-jet system from my spare car instead (a 1975 1.8), would it be possible to get the 120-125 hp a carb'd 2056 makes? What tweaks exactly will be required to make the L-jet perform safely, and correctly? I have read that the fuel pressure may need to be raised. What are the other considerations and can they be handled by a competent DYI-er? |

We actually inherited a 2056 made out of a 1.8 Fat performance engine with a problem, took it completely apart, installed a stock cam and reinstalled the 1.8 fuel injection. Runs great has PLENTY of power (jake of course would not think so!!) , looks completely stock and gets good gas mileage!
