OK, here is a newbie question for you.
When comparing a 1.7 case to a 2.0 case, are the dimensions (width) the same from cylinder base to opposing cylinder base on both engines? The reason I ask is I want to set-up a mock up engine with the 1.7 case I have, with the intention of eventually building a motor based on the 2.0 case. Both motors will be using 1.7 barrels and heads. I want to design an intake and exhaust system on the bench, on the mock up engine (1.7 case), and want to be sure it will bolt up top the 'real' engine (2.0 case) once it is built. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Any other concerns or thoughts from anyone who may have some experience with this? Thanks. |

Thanks for the info.
The situation is that I am intrigued by the turbo motor Dave (ottoxx) is building, based upon a 2.0 bottom end with a 1.7 (highly modified) top end. This sounds like something I would like to duplicate, potentially. I will need to design an exhaust manifold, locate the turbo and intercooler and install a fuel injection system, so I'm trying to get up to speed with the various components available and figure out what will fit in the engine bay. I currently have a 1.7 motor (shot) that I can use for dimensions, but I will need to purchase a 2.0 case, crank and rods from which I will build the turbo motor. Once the 'real' motor is built I can then transfer all systems to it. This allows me to do my R&D while I squirrel away the $$ for the turbo motor. |
