Does this have valve cut outs to get the lower compression??






john

 

What is a '202' block?

 

No, brand new 4x4 pistons which in a 2wd bottom end give that comp ratio

 

Transit power

Basically it's thicker walled like the 200 block.
It also does not have big core plug the back of the block which can cause 200 blocks to split lengthways.

The only downside is the fact it can't be longstudded which was never an issue for me as I don't like longstudding.
An alloy head needs room to expand.

Basically it's a vast improvement on the 205 block and swings and roundabout compared to the 200 block.

I went that route following advice from my engine builder and wouldn't hesitate to use 202 blocks in any power build

 

would a 4x4 head with bd 14 cams be ok and not hit??




john

 

Hmm, I have heard of people using BD14 without cut outs but I think it's the exception rather than the norm.

Wouldn't like to say either way.
I can measure the gap at TDC with my verniers if you like?

Doubt if it would be to expensive to pop the pistons out and pocket them tho

 

Has the crank been reground?

Was the block line bored?


Few more details about the build please if possible.

...just to point out GurnE long studs are semi stretch

 

Didn't your own block crack around the bolt holes when using long studs Phil?

 

gurnE no it cracked cause i WASNT using long studs!...I was on STANDARD stretch bolts.With a T4 blowing 2.2bar it was a little too much for em

 

ah

 

Deposit ain't turned up

Bloke reckons he sent it to the wrong account by mistake but has failed to ring me back so it's back up for sale
