Title: 2175cc engine questions Post by: Jesse/DVK on January 19, 2011, 00:13:04 am Hi all
I need to buy the last parts for my engine build and i need some help. 2175cc Dpr 78.4 x 94mm 48 ida Steve tims stage 2 plus heads (welded) 42 x 37 Fk8 Push rods: Manton, jaycee or ac.net aluminium? Any pros/cons? Venturis Keep the stock 37mm or bigger? Will the engine benefit from aftermarket stacks like jaycee or berg? Will be used more on street but will see strip action. Thanks!

What about push rods, does anyone have experience with the alu pushrods. Weight differs a lot almost 50 grams per pushrod!

You can check them out at pushrods.net. They have good products and the guys there are really helpful. They also have cromoly if you decide to go that route. They will send them to you clean and assembled to your length. Good company to deal with.
