Single cam, compression, and pump gas. No FI or dohc
I'd rather set my goals high and have some to strive for than set them low and always want more.
Well said!
People, please - i did this to see what a "backyard job" can do on a motor like this. The headwork is basic match port, the build consisted of better pistons and eliminating bal. shafts - machine work and assembly is all standard. All other components are bolt-ons.
If you have the $$$$ for a nicer head built, sleeved block, better flowing intake, upgraded cam, fuel system upgrade and exhaust system - i don't see how you couldn't make well over 200whp with this motor.
The motor in 6GA was never intened for race, track or any high-performance builds and/or use. What we have here are the performance results of a mild-built reliable economy motor. All the $ spent in trial and error, could of gone into a hella-built K/H-series swap. But I chose to stay true to the original drivetrain of this great car and make it a faster sleeper.
I already have another build in process to get me go fast a looking nice - 65 Cobra kit car
