How large can you build a 2.0 motor and still use it as a reliable daily driver?

I'm really starting to like the idea of the 78/98 engine combo. This doesnt have to be built on a 2.0.

For the budget minded...I would build a 2056 which is a stock 2.0 crank/rods and 96mm P+C's.

Try and stay away from the 103mm P+C's.

Dave,

How to calculate engine cc's

Bore (mm) X bore (mm) X stroke (mm) X 0.0031416= engine cc

Example:

94mm X 94mm X 78mm X 0.0031416 = 2165.cc

NOTE:

0.0031416 is used for 4 cylinder engines
0.0047124 is used for 6 cylinder engines
0.0062832 is used for 8 cylinder engines

I have all the engine math if you need it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

78mm X 96mm is the largest you can you build a 2.0 motor and still use it as a reliable daily driver.

Dave if you are going with a 78mm crank get one with type 1 (beetle) rod journals. Not only are T4 rods heavy but they're very short (rod angle) as well. You can use modified T1 rods or any of the aftermarket T1 longer rods. This will give you greater flexablity on the design of your engine.
You will also have to use a small (22mm) pin piston like the 96mm or some guys have used a 94mm T1 piston on a T4 jugg.
Good luck, Mark

using 78mmx98mm = 2354cc, if I did my math correctly. This would still be a good daily driver? How much more horses would this give me? Should I stick with the D-Jet? Abd if I did - is the F.I. system transferable from my 1.7 - minus the injectors?

hmm I don't know but that seems kinda large to be a daily driver that you'd get a decent amount of miles from. also I think there is no way you can use the stock FI with something that beastly?? why don't you just stick with something proven like a carbed 2270cc?

For a daily driver a 2056cc is the ticket as you can keep the Djet and keep it cool. For larger motors, the 2270cc with carbs is nice or the top of the line would be running the 102mm Nickies with a 78mm crank, carbs etc. That motor would be atleast $6k!
Back to the 2056cc, that can be built for reasonable, gives good hp (95 -115) and lots of low end torque for street driving.

I already got H-beams w/ chevy journals and bushed for 22 pins. My 94's are cut for longer (78) stroke. I was considering the T 1 stuff when this stuff (P's & rods) was brought to my attenion... Thanks for yer ideas, tho
