Hi,
I just pulled the 1.7 out of the 70 i've been putting new floors in. I had planned to run it for a while. This is not gonna happen. I've never had an engine that was moldy internally. The crank is seized, the cam is seized. Im sure it was full of water at some point. Anyway, I'd like to put together a dependable motor that is more in the 7.5 seconds 0 -60 MPH range. I have multiple 1.7 engines and a 1.8 engine sitting around. I'd rather just build a good motor now than trust another unknown bottom end. Djet, Ljet or carbs are fine. So, with that; anyone care to share a good build list/recipe for such a beast? Thanks, Paul |

Since you have multiple cores, i'd go with a 2056 and a somewhat aggressive cam.
That will really wake up your car ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

You'll be happier with a 2056, but it's going to cost a lot more. |
