so..in the distant future....i will be rebuilding my 71, 1.7 engine, if all goes as planned i will send it to jake, but what can be done to a 1.7, is it as easy to modify as a 2.0?

should i just get a 2.0 block and send that instead......any ideas/suggestions

im looking for about 150 hp and 150 torque, if possible, nothing crazy, i want to keep it as stock as possible in the sense that i want a t-4 that isnt way much higer than 2.0L

Nothing special about the 2.0 case. Same old thing. Jake prefers the 1.7 or maybe it is one of the bus cases can't remember.

The 2.0 porsche heads do flow better and have better plug placement but Jakes best stock type heads are the square port head, more flow potential.

Just send the 1.7.

Also, he uses 1.7 rocker arms only, they are the only ones that can be milled to accept the 911 swivel feet adjusters.

So you really have quite a good core.
