Whats the Best way to upgrade a stk 2.0 ?, how to get more PWR with stk parts,.. Options

[flmont]

Iam trying to upgrade my 2.0 type 4 and the machine shop is a little leary,..of going with bigger valve's for fear of the seats falling out,..so If I keep stk heads,..what are my choices for going for more PWR,..I know larger PC's are planned,.. 96MM,..with larger cam,..using weber carbs,..( ICT 34's is what came off the engine,.) I don't need to use those carbs, if there are better options ,..like 40 or 44's,..can I keep original crank and rods,. I would like to if there still good,..just trying to punch it up as much as I can using close to stk or stk parts,..??? they talked about higher compression ratio's,..??? Thanks Frank

I would look into getting a matched kit from someone like the Type 4 Store. They have done all of the homework and can get you a solid kit together that uses most of your stock parts.

That way you get something that is proven to work. I don't think case work is required unless you go bigger than 96 mm on the P/C.
