Who all have tales/tribulations about buying a nice motor?
Any reccomendations on places to look into? Im not interested in an off-the-shelf TIV, but a nicely built motor with some fire... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) I have been looking for somthing from outside CA if possible.....fuck the government, I dont wanna give them any of my tax $$...! "justveedubs.com" seems like they might have something in store for me...any horror stories or better reccomendations? a bit of customization to their "2700cc TIV" might do the trick nicely.....mebbe "101.5" instead of those 104's though... woah.... (IMG:http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/Bezerker420/DSC02904resize.jpg) NOTICE: Sorry Jake, I LOVE your works there, but untill furthur notice I cant quite afford your motors..... [I know you are working for the high-end market, filling that price-point.....but do you have any inclination to offer a high-tech but slightly more budget minded engine option? IE. carbourated? that would knock off like 5K no?] -JD |

Look in the resources area. Eric Shea makes a really nice product. I believe his conversion for a rear control arm is somewhere around $300 for the pair. he's about as well-respected as anyone in here. As for the front, I will defer to the experts (Eric may also chime in and make suggestions), but it shouldn't be too hard to make the front suspension conversion. Bolt-on according to most....
Good luck. C. |
