Greg,

I am stoked for you..

What did you think of the quality of the cosmetics of the engine?

Tin, bolts, shroud etc.??

I know of someone that was intrested in one of these engines. I just want to relay the data to him.

Straight from an owners perspective.

And how does it run?

Did ya drive it yet?

ENQUIRING MINDS NEED TO KNOW..!

Cheers,

Clayton

Cool!!

Mark has put a lot of effort into doing these engines correctly based on my kits.

I believe that anyone purchasing them is getting MORE than they pay for! Hell AA now gets 7,700.00 for a STOCK 2.0 build and its not much more than a longblock and on top of that iots 100% stock without any upgraded parts or procedures!

Keep us in the loop on how it performs.. Make sure to follow the break in procedures!

Jake -
i posted about jetting for this motor on your forums, but ill also ask here.

mark says it has a 9580 cam...

He has weber 44 IDF's, with 36 vents, 200 airs, 160? mains and 60 idles. waay big.

im guessing he needs 32 vents - what mains and jets do you reccomend for this kit?

The engine has very little impact on jetting.. the VENTURI SIZE and elevation dictates jetting.. The rule of thumb for venturis smaller than 36mm is multiply the venturi X 1.4 for the main jet size for sea level operation. I drop one half ize per 1000' of elevation from sea level...

36 vents are way too big for a 2056, 32-34 will work best..

we are at 500 ft.....
32 x 1.4 = 44.8 - so i assume try a 140 or a 145 main?

55 idles?

200 airs?

I had a lot of fun on Saturday working on Bill's car. We started off putting in the
front sway bar then moved to the engine install after lunch. It went in very easy with just a little snag with the heat exchangers and the cars wiring. We got him running
around 6 pm and he went for a drive. The engine fired right up although with the
huge jet that were in the carbs the engine was protesting a little bit. After a getting
the carbs dialed in this will be a good runner. Mark did an excellent job on his
engine, it was super clean and sound good mechanically. I was glad to be able to
be there to help out and met Mark.

You know I'm secretive.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

I had a great time being there in person for the first install and fire off. Everyone was a ton of help, I mostly just stood back and watched then stepped in for little stuff.

It was great to meet you Craig, have fun with your project! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Is there an options for these motors to utilize the stock FI? I don't want carbs.

What did you have before, and how does it drive now? If the old setup was not stock, then have you driven a stock 914 and how does this motor compare?
What exhaust are you running?

Yes, but you end up leaving a lot of HP on the table because of the stock-ish cam. Aftermarket FI is an option.
