I have the chance to pick up a 1,7 engine for about $300, its seems like a pity to pass it over but I am wondering what I can do with it. The engine in my car is a 2.0, can I build a stroker from the 1,7 or use it in some other way or just use it for spares?

The cases are all the same, so if you've ever thought about building a different, or fresh motor, you could pick this up as a platform to build off of. 1911 is a stock 1.7 crank (66mm stroke) with big-bore 96mm pistons (stock is 90). These can be really fun motors, comparable to a stock 2.0. There are no stroker cranks that would work with the other 1.7 components. If you replace the crank and rods, you've got the whole world of engine size possibilities open to you. And then there's always the turbo option... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |
