Hello,
I decided to rebuild my 2.0 engine. FI have been removed in a previous life, and the car is running (baddly) with two Weber 44 IDF. So we decided to rebuild all. As the cranckase will be open, it seems the right time to choose a new camshaft. But wich one ? Wich duration ? Wich lifting ? I do not want to build a race engine, but a funny street car. 120 to 130 Hp are expected, with also a little job on heads (Comp. ratio upgraded from 8.0 to 8.5) Any advice welcome. |

I totally agree with Jake Raby about the camshaft importance. It is the reason why I inquire with you, specialists (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)
So, Jake, May be you can suggest me any configuration : Option 1 : 2.0 GB totally stock except 2x44 IDF and new camshaft/lifters Option 2 : The same, except using VW T1 94mm forged pistons that are 100gr. lighter than stock ones and that increase CR. Thanks a lot for you interest. |
