I'm thinking about taking a 2.0 block to about a 2270.
If I'm not mistaken, this can be done with relatively minor changes. Perhaps polish the crank, and do some machine work on the case to accommodate the 103 Ps and Cs. Then, add a cam, and some head work. Any ideas? I'm trying to budget for a rebuild... and I'm trying to make sure I budget properly. |
