Building a 2110 - any advice ???

[Lee.C]

Hey Guys I need some advice  I have just done a deal on some engine bits and it looks like I'm going to be building a 82x90.5 2110cc  with a pair of IDA's and some Scat D port heads, My plan is for this to be a full on STREET motor that will be matched to a 5 speed box and will see plenty of miles so whats your advice guys What cam  which make of crank  ratio'd lifters  push rods  Ignition  Rods 

I need all the help I can get guys so let me know what set ups your running out there

First is this all new or used? if used allow for a valve job and some springs,best to start of all good    My choice would be  K8 or fk44 both with 1.4 rockers,chromoly push rods.
Rods,I would go for h beams,you could use i beams but they are heavier,personally i would put 5.5s in it but 5.4s would be ok
Compression 8.7 upwards,what is this going in? full weight car or light buggy
1 5/8 merged header with your choice of muffler[in a bug dual quiet packs]
 I would use a scat crank,just had good luck with them myself & it would be 84mm stroke,but then I would use 94mm piston/cylinders
cheers richie,uk

PS and lose the idas,they are to old and badly designed

[Lee.C]

Hey Richie - I was hoping you would reply  

The parts I have are a pair of IDA's with match ported manifolds, Scat Pro comp heads 40x37.5 D ports cut for 90.5/92's with 56cc chambers and a 1 5/8 stainless header - They are second hand but have only done approx 1500 miles

I was thinking of a 84x94 motor but this would mean machining out the the heads - would this be ok 

Also the engine will be going in my new Street racer Bug/ 70's Cal Looker 

Why do you say don't use the IDA's and what would you use instead  would it involve lots of tubing and a spinny thing 

So what would be your ultimate spec for a street going 2332

82 X 90.5 -- yeah now we're talking.  I'm collecting parts for this combo myself.

So far I've collected:

Case--late 70s fuel injection case
Crank--CB forged/nitrided 82mm
Rods--RIMCO Super Rods
P/Cs--Mahle
Heads--VW 043 worked by K-Roc.  40x35.5, 186 CFM @ .600"
CB 1.4 ratio rockers, dual springs
Web 86B cam
Magnum gears
CB 28mm lifters
Dellorto 48 DRLAs

I'm going to try and have the shortblock underway over the winter (altho I am not sure how that will really go).  Once it is done, if it runs solidly down in the 13s on street tires I'll be really happy.

[Lids]

I will run 86 x 94 with AA pistons and Barrels.  10:1cr 44 x 37 heads IDA's (Which i will change to EFI cuz they are shit;)) and using a webcam 86b cam for street use.

Should be good for 200bhp+

Only need a a couple of bits and it can be put together.

Ah come on guys stop putting your selves down    So what would you suggest Martin  let me guess some more tubing and a spinny thing 

[ESH]

I definitely don't know anything, (I work in an office for a start! ) but you're welcome over anytime. Richie's 84/94 suggestion makes sense to me, a big lazy is good for the street I think. 

[Lee.C]

Well I must know nothing then cos I work in a Hotel in London   

Thanks for the offer Mat PM your phone number and address and I'll pop over soon dude - I've been dying to checkout your ride in more detail  you run a 2332 right

[Zach Gomulka]

If you dont upgrade to 94's now, you will soon wish you had once the motor is running!

Have sent a PM. A hotel? It's a wonder either of us even know what an engine is!
