ask Karl, he has built a lot off 1.6cvh big bhp cars.

im going for this kinda power minimum 280 when i get the summer out the way. should think it will require a piston change, a t34 and some more head work???

andyblack1.9frst

would karl rework my 1900 tall block or does he stay with 1600 blocks?
thanks for any info andy

Karl

My spec is half way thru at the mo.

Have the 1.9 Specialised engine, cossie management ,greens, T34 with 6 degree cut back blades / Maram shaft / 360 degree thrust bearing, grs rad and intercooler, Level 6 ecu

Going for forged pistons , steel rods, greys, P8 ECU with antilag and possibly a custom exhaust manifold.

Doing this over the winter.

This Spec should see me over 300 bhp as I should be able to run plenty of boost as it's just a toy car and not my main car.

i thought those power figures were done years ago!
