OK, we have recently hashed out head gaskets, Pistons, rods, and bearings.
A while a go it was oil pumps. So what about a fresh build discussion. I plan on building a decent 2.0 based street engine. Goals are decent power, longevity and drivability. Think fun reliable touring with an occasional autocross. (Kind of what a factory 2.0 was good for, but with a little more kick in the pants.) AND reasonable price (Yes, that is always open to interpretation) What is recommended displacement? Bore and Stroke? What pistons, rods and cylinders? What compression? What cam? Guessing micro squirt or tuned up D-Jet. What "tricks" are worth while for a few HP and/or drivability, longevity, etc. What "tricks" are not worth while (or worst yet help one direction and hurt another) How much worse would it be to start with a 1.8 base? (Heads, etc.) |

light flywheel is always an easy not too expensive add on for a little more kick.
