5000.00 20,000 ???

probably did minimal head work so they can upgrade down the road.

alot is a relative term.

Do they have a price breakdown? what would it cost to build similar motor with and without turbo

what article was that?

Ok guys I have said this before I will repeat proper flush and fill procedures. Don't use chemicals. find a good rad shop and they will do a reverse system power flush with compressed air and water. this goes thru your heater hose in reverse flow and flushes out your complete system. (your...

So for a buck or two per valve are the Hughes valves better? I have a Hughes Stroker kit and am very happy with it. I would think for an extra 24.00 I would go with Hughes

too late to be a quadrophonic realistic stereo...

also be careful where that flush goes to on the ground and into the water system.

unfortunately if you dont use compressed air and water in reverse flow you are not knocking all the buildup off and not the best way to do it. I used to own a Rad shop and that is the only way to do it properly. Remember to remove the top hose and take an old upper hose and cut it down to a 90...

one more thing to do once you get it all together. Go back to the radiatior shop and get them to do a reverse power flush on your car. Rad, heater, and engine. They use compressed air and water. Dont buy those plastic "tee's" they sell to put in your heater lines, doesnt work!

Thanks Rusty, yes I have read that article that is what I got started on this road with. Seeing that it is an older article, and I have read since then there may be better pistons than the Vega I was just asking if anyone knew any thanks

I seen that and Charlie mentioned it too. From what I have read they are recommending put the 198 crank in with the 170 rods and pistons, then take your measurements. CC the combustion chamber. Then call a piston company and see what they have or recommend. Also check for clearance for the...

I understand that from your other posts I have read over the years, I get that. I have no illusions that I can go faster with the stroked 170 compared to a 225 given the same modifications to both motors. I just like the idea of using the 170. 50lbs lighter on the front end doesn’t hurt...

No problem here on my end that is why I opened up this discussion in the first place. So besides the class restrictions for the 170 compared to the 198/225 Why do you like the 170 so much

Ok what about the rev limit I was led to believe from what I read is the 170 will rev much higher than the 225

I don’t think I am anywhere near where I could race in the series to qualify but I do want to race it locally and drive it on the street too. The 170/198 will rev higher and that will work well with the turbo at the top end.

Thanks for all your input guys. Please just bear with me and let me throw a few things around, we’re just talking here so this isn it costing me money lol So first off... I have a 198 crank to put into a 170, I have always wanted to build a 170 stroker. so... My idea is to build a stroker...

Ok why would you instead of shortie and why not stroke it?

Can you or would you use a long ram intake similar to the hyperpak intake instead of a shortie?

did it work

Maybe if it is new NOS, still in the packing and you were building an original Hyperpak. But it will sell for what someone is willing to pay

That would suggest to me that the reserve was too high.

mechanical injection? looks like a toilet on its side..

So, laying in bed last night I was putting together a slant six race motor. has anyone built an alchohol injected turbo motor?. I was thinking of mechanical fuel injection, either a bird catcher or flying toilet with port injection. crank driven pump and just mild boost. thoughts???

put it in neutral if it turns over probably the problem

oh I see you figured it out. Great, I have tried to get my son into helping me with his cars but he is not interested.... I usually try to help him with what he is into at the time. Keep up the good work will be following

I also have an autistic son and understand how hard it is sometimes to compromise with him once his mind is made up. I would be on the lookout for a good used or rebuild one on here or .org

I want to know who knows how that was built
