So, I'm back. +1. The most amazing daughter, my first that I thought I would wish to be a son, has taken the majority of my time. I just placed an order to rebuild 'as-is', meaning a 1911 build. While power could be something I chase I like the idea of keeping it 'faster' revving and more inline with what my FIL built/bought. I've ordered AMC 42x36 94 Bore heads, Chromoly H-Beam 5.00" Rods (pains me to pay for stock length rods at this price), & 96mm Type 4 Bus Pistons with Biral Cylinders. I'd love input on the rod purchase. I'm not looking to abuse this car but rods seemingly are hard to find at the stock 1.7L stroke (66mm) for cheap. Anywho, I'll post build pics as they come. Good for you and congrats on your daughter. They are the best! I'll be following this closely. I've got a long dormant 1.7 liter 1972 that I am making plans for. I'm likely going to pull the original engine and store it. I've got 2 2.0 cores, one with FI that I can build from. I am thinking of going with carbs or modern FI. |
