So, there are some big changes coming in E-production (SCCA) to "equalize" the competition. In 2005, the 914-4 2.0L runs at 1870 pounds with driver.
Is anyone thinking of switching from FP to EP and using a 2.0L now that the 914 has lost 50 pounds? As you may have guessed, I'm considering it. Since I have 2-2.0L engines and no 1.8s, I'll be starting in EP anyway. But, I'm on the 4-year plan to get competitive (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge24.gif) , so it really doesn't matter immediately. I know they used to be competitive in EP. Anyway, there have been some posts about the horsepower a FP 1.8 can make. Any thoughts on a 2.0L? |

Good thing the 3 of us dont live close together. I havent watched TV in weeks.. just barely listen to the radio. Always working on something.
I find it VERY hard to get a racer to "start" developing anything. Suspension is a little easier only in the fact that the results are immediate. I have one local guy who runs a nice car. He may be interested in a 2.0 race engine. I'm right along with Brett on the thinking of 200-210. I may have access to new valve spring material that the Nascar engines are using. It helped them get over the 8KRPM hump with pushrods. B |
