I'd like to know what some of the members are running for a type iv. Please answer the following questions:
1. What is the stroke, bore, and CC's of the engine? 2. If the engine is stroked over 71mm what case work was needed? 3. What cam are you running? 4. If using carbs/EFI, what is the setup? 5. What's the HP, or do you feel the engine has good torque/HP for the setup you have? 6. Comments on anything else... Hine62 |

Malcolm, I'll be damned if'n I can't cipher this one out. But it's frustrating. I just ordered an AFR today and hope to see if that can give me an indication of what's going on. My head temps are perfect, my oil temp is right at 210*, but I'm not getting the MPG's I think I should. Yes, I'm a CSOB, that's a given 'round here.
I recall a not so distant thread about drilling a hole in the throttle plate, but I haven't done that yet. I missed out on a couple TB's while at Hershey, so at least I know replacements are available if I bugger this one. I'm also considering eliminating the AAR to see if that helps. It functions as it should, but maybe the additional air doesn't help. Lest anyone think the Ljet is maxed out stock, all I can say is I've driven Chris Foley's creation in 2.2 form, and it's incredible. Reminds me of my 2.7 911. Someday...
