If you were to choose, would you build a 2056 or 1911?

1911 if you are starting with an engine that has a strong bottom end and you don't want to split the case. It seems like a great bang for the buck, you can get its full potential without upgrading the FI.
2056 if you aren't worried about a full teardown and can spend on whatever case machining is necessary. Full potential comes with well tuned fuel delivery. If you're really interested in what I personally am planning, I'm putting the 1.7 back in while I build a 1911 with a spare case/crank that I have, then I'll swap them and start building the original 1.7 into a 2056 and swap again when that's done. |
