Looking to do a 2056 or 2270 build from a stock 2.0. Changing over to carburetorated, with 96mm pistons.. Looking for good cam advise. I'm looking for more hp, but very reliable.

The biggest difficulty for building a 2270 for a while was finding a 78.4/78mm type iv stroker crankshaft. But, currently it looks like they're available again. With aftermarket rods, you should have very little if any clearance problems with the 2270. So, the main difference between building the 2056 versus the 2270 is the size of the spacers between the case and the cylinders (and the crankshaft stroke of 71 or 78).

Pick a Webcam (with matched lifters) appropriate for the application you will be putting the motor. Or we like tool steel lifters and crower springs. With the right cam choice it'll run just fine on carbs.
