Need all of your superior guidance, Engine related questions Options

k, I found a bargain 1.7

Questions are as follows:

1: with a set of dual weber 34 ict's, what are my limitations on a larger set of piston/cylinders?(94, 96-103mm?)

2: is it even possible to install the larger pistons and cylinders on the 1.7 engine?

3: Am I being foolish.

Thanks to all of you who take time to post your opinions and information.

I'll take all that I can get...

I would love to ahve some work done by jake, but I just dont have that kinda green at this time.

I was gonna try and keep the engine section of the car to below a 1K cost.

The 1.7 costing $100, carbs $200, Pistons and cylinders $400, and then go out and find a cam.

I was gonna tear it apart, clean it up, do a mild rebuild, install the parts, and get her back together and in the car at a local shop that I I used to work in.


I have a 1.7 in the car now, and she runs fine, just a real smoker.

And if at any time someone doesn an in depth write up on a turbo build, well. Lets just say that regardless of where I am in the car progress, thats what im doin.


I have found a 2.0 with carbs from bhfast, whom seems to be a great guy willing to work with me, I just gotta get the last bit of cash...



Thanks again guys, its you fella's that keep guys like me goin back to the car and gettin dirty again, and again...



*edit* I know im foolish, but I love the teener. The only guy in the parking lot at school with one, not many can say that.

I love this life...
