I have a stock w code 1700 engine to rebuild for my car.
I would like to run a twin 40 idf set up. There is no fuel injection set up to put on it and the car had all the guts ripped out before i bought it. The engine is fairly tidy and compression is good. I've learned that i need to to change the cam as the djet is unsuitable for carbs. As my budget is low for the engine build i was going to hone the cylinders and fit new piston rings and keep the 1700 cc size. What i need to know is what size cam should i fit (it's a street car only) and what other bits would be needed for this upgrade? |
