1975 2.0, Engine rebuild Options

[DavidSweden]

I am going to rebuild my 2.0 GC engine. The car was originally fitted with the smog stuff removed by PO, also has the original FI

Question;

I want to get more power from the engine without spending a lot of $ and I want to do the work myself.
All suggestions welcome, thanks

Swap out the 94mm cylinders and pistons for 96mm. That will give you a 2056mm displacement engine.Then you either re-tune the MPS and keep the D-jet or go with carbs and a cam swap. It's a pretty popular "upgrade". Just check the new P's&C's for run out. Some brands can be hit or miss.

I don't mean to hijack here but.... would you be more specific about "Just check the new P's&C's for run out. Some brands can be hit or miss."?

Generally speaking, I bet he is talking about the quality. Are they round, how un-round are they, etc...? I got mine from the type4store back when Jake's folks were doing the QC on the various brands, putting together a PC package for you that was the best quality and reliability. They probably still are, I just have not shopped their since I finished my engine.
