Title: 2276-W125-1.25:1 or W120? Post by: airstuff on April 12, 2008, 17:27:47 pm How fast would I be in the 1/4 mile with the mentioned combo in the stock weight 72. beetle,no interior ;D
At the moment,I have Engle 120,Engle 125 lying around,",waiting for crankshaft which is on it's way Which of these would be superior street combo,I heard that w125 with 1.25 rockers is close to an fk8 with 1.4 rockers? I will be using 1.25:1 rockers In the motor goes 82 crank,5.4 I-beams,lightened flywheel For the heads as said before I have few choices: 1: New CB Mini Wedge 2:Steve Timms Stage 2 3.DRD L5 It will be topped with 44 IDF carbs for now,later on maybe I'll move to more serious IDA's.

What kind of gearbox do you run with? 4.37? Go with the W125 cam and those rockers. For heads i think all the 3 options are great but i would choose the DRD L5 heads. Succes dude. 8) Title: Re: 2276-W125-1.25:1 or W120? Post by: airstuff on April 14, 2008, 10:18:36 am With that combo you will run in the 14's i bet. What kind of gearbox do you run with? 4.37?

but if you don't have rocker alerady I would go with an FK + 1.4 ;) Title: Re: 2276-W125-1.25:1 or W120? Post by: Bewitched666 on April 17, 2008, 11:50:58 am FK8 + 1.4 rockers ;D

Post by: jr59 on April 17, 2008, 21:08:45 pm you don't have to worry with the I beam rods if you have goods one with good ARP bolt,with both cam!! max power will be around 6000rpm with good heads so...
we ran a 78mm crank with Gene Berg 191S vw rods wich rev around 8000 and 10.7cr with no PB!! Title: Re: 2276-W125-1.25:1 or W120? Post by: Neil Davies on April 18, 2008, 10:37:29 am I don't have any experience of this cam, but Mark Herbert recommended the FK10 to me several years ago for use with stock gears. Of course, I ended up buying a close ratio 'box before I built a motor so ended up with an FK89... ;)
