I'm at a crossroad in my 914 experience. After getting all the engine components cleaned up and ready to go, I started my inspection. Turns out the PO never told me there was a good bit of piston slap. So I'm turning a different route and I would like to get more information on the 2270.
Does anyone know where I can get specifics about it? I hear a lot of upgrades from the 1.7 and 1.8L blocks, but not all that much from the 2L block? Is there a reason? Is there a way to get the added stroke without cracking the block? Anyways, thanks for the info. Can't wait to actually drive this thing that sits in my garage and taunts me (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) |

Hm.. I'm sad to hear that. It looks like the additional stroke will have to wait. Cracking the block was actually the line that I didn't want to cross. I had taken a look at Jake's site, his engines insane.. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/drooley.gif) His site was actually what got me thinking about trying it on my own. Still have too much (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sawzall-smiley.gif) and (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/welder.gif) before I can spend a lot on the engine.
Looks like the hunt is on for a good set of 94mm's without breaking the bank Thanks for all the info |
