The Cal-look Lounge

1776cc mouse engine
-   I built this engine in 2000, back when Gene Berg parts were the engine builders choice #1   ;D
-   AS41 engine case, 0.50mm, decked, full flowed, deburred

-   VW original rods, rebuilt and balanced
-   90.5 Cima/Mahle; Total Seal 2nd, valve pockets, balanced
-   Heads built from new original castings, 40x36.2mm S/S valves, ported by Hannu Luoto / Virtauskansi Oy, short and tall matched & ported IDF/DRLA-manifolds. These are really nice, and they flow 174hp/13mm with small ports
-   Gene Berg valvetrain: triple springs, titanium retainers, lash caps, valve locks, studs, 1.40:1 rockers and 80.000psi pushrods
-   Engle K-10, Magnum straight cut gears

This engine ran 13.48sec / 158.9km/h in a full-weight street car back in 2002 on a non-prepped airfield track, and later 15.22sec in a VW Type 2, driven to and from track. Should make about 150hp?

The engine has been sitting in a warm garage since 2006, and it has been turned regularly. The valves/seats should be touched, most likely lapping the valves is all that is needed.

Asking 4500 euro. Located in Helsinki, Finland.
