Title: engine size. Post by: 67worshipper on April 02, 2008, 14:15:58 pm need some info boys and girls.im building a 1914 with bits as and when i can afford them <dont we all> ive got a new case flowed machined for 94mm barrels and at the weekend ive bought some cb perf. cnc round port heads with extra work carried out by jmr the valve sizes are 42 and 37.5mm.now im looking at cb performance crank in 76mm and a set of h beam rods as a deal second hand.the guy whose selling says theyve been checked by stateside performance <james calvert> decent kit i think but is it all compatable? was going to use 69 cw crank and make a little screamer but this crank and rods is a spot on deal. i have no more bits at this time so general spec for the rest would be good.what dya reckon 2110 0r 1914?

Title: Re: engine size. Post by: Rennsurfer on April 03, 2008, 05:06:23 am It's all about the 1300cc. Port and polish those single ports and let the good times roll.
On a more serious note; I was talking to a guy that owns a local VW repair shop about a month ago. He and his partner were telling me that they build reliable and fast engines using the stock bore but with the biggest stroke available for the Type 1. Interesting concept. Anyone know how that works from an experience point of view? I would love to see one in action in a street or race car. Sounds like more of an off-road application to me. But what do I know?

Great motor, but good luck on finding a set of stroker 88's. I've known of a couple guys who built 85.5x82 motors (custom pistons). Good mileage, but overall performance seemed a little boring and it was alot more work than simply throwing together a simple 1915. |
