I'm getting close to pulling the trigger on the 2270 engine kit from the Type 4 store. I'm curious if anyone knows what the difference between the kit and the Raby 2270 SR. I see they each have different HP specs. Do we think this is an actual difference or just a difference in written spec? Same cam? Same Heads? Curious if this kit can make better HP than 140? Headers? Other tested and ordained cam?
I'd appreciate any input based on experience, Best, Alex |

[quote name='Hank914' post='2099544' date='Oct 18 2014, 04:13 PM'] To me you have a choice ...heat or in your case about 10 extra hp, or the extreme of swapping exchangers and headers 2X year. Tangerine did have a heat box option at one time you could see if he still does. The only thing that works electrically is heated seats, the heaters are total crap. A gas heater is a do-able option but it costs and is a lot of work. [/quote] (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I got the tangerine heater box. it works, but mainly to defog the window. It does take the chill off nicely on cool days and nights but not when it is cold. I have been thinking about adding an oil cooler and using that as a heat exchanger (another member suggested that as an option.). I also plan on the heated seats when I redo the seats. |
