I have been working my tail off and saving money to build my 2litre motor this summer, so far i have saved $2500, If should have another $1500 in a month or so. However, I have been seeing 2.7-6 and 2.4-6 on ebay, the recycler and other places from $850.00 - $4000.
My question is - is it worth upgrading to a 2 litre from my 1.7, when a couple of thousand dollars more, i could get a six? And what is involved (price wise) to convert it from a 4 to a six. Give me some feedback - Craig |

QUOTE(Brad Roberts @ Apr 7 2003, 02:41 PM) The new owner is on here. His name is Tim. He got what I felt was fair deal for a super clean chassis/decent paint. He ended up rebuilding the engine (its on his avatar) I wish he had more time for the BBS. I know he has engineering skills that could help us out on some new parts. Yep. Saw the car just over a week ago at the GGR Autocross at Candlestick. It was Tim's first autocross, and I was his instructor. Nice guy. He rebuilt the motor himself to a 2.2 (not sure what specs). Had good power. I wish my chassis was as clean as his. He had a good time. He'll be back for more.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Demick '74 2.0 |
