So now I'm considering just using the eurovan crank and doing a 2.5L 20v.

Hmmmmmmm

That thought had crossed my mind when Tim had the bottom end in his shop. Not sure how well it would have worked.

Keep that crank. You're far better off doing a stroker than a revver. The head on a 20vt doesn't flow well enough to warrant doing a long rod de-stroker. Have a fat powerband from 4000-7000 and call it good.

[AngryTaco]

true. It has a 1.66 R/S ratio too like the 20v motors

Dude, make it happen. I want to see this thing live again!

[AngryTaco]

Focused on the dodge at the moment. After driving that maserati, I want a 400hp 4000lb ass hauler lol

So you want a GTR?

el oh el

[AngryTaco]

So you want a GTR?

fuck no!

[AngryTaco]

ugh....might buy a mini-lathe this weekend. Would mean I could make more precise and cheaper sleeving for the bushings

[AngryTaco]

Scrapped the old transmission today after pulling everything of value off of it.....

It weighed a whopping 106 lbs with no center dif cover. Hell I thought it weighed like 80lbs. I must be getting strong or something.

$6.18.......not even enough to cover the gas to get there in the truck lol

5v conversion in da werkz

[AngryTaco]

who needs 5v per cylinder when you can have 10 PER WHOLE MOTOR!?

[ringbearer]

No, If 2 per cyl is so hawt how bout 1 per?

5 per cyl is way too much for you

[AngryTaco]

I agree. Who needs more valves when you have e98?

[85oceanic]
