bodgy engine-will it work? - Aussie V8 | Holden - Ford

moot · 12-08-2008, 06:43 PM

i want to build a bodgy engine for a shitta car that the boys have,so we can have some fun.

i've been given a later model (93 ish) 350 chev,in reasonable condition (its done 80000k's) i looked up the casting numbers and its 9.3:1 comp with 64cc heads. so my plan is to get a set of dart iron eagles in 200cc form with the 49cc chambers, roughly this should give me 11:1 comp

i have a spare victor jr,so i'll use that,so what should i do for a cam?it'll have roller rockers but i dont want to use a roller cause there to dear for this engine.my only real concerns are piston to valve clearance, i'm thinking a solid in the 250@50's. reckon it'll fit? and reckon it'll make 400hp before it dies

ok this crap motor has been torn down,i'm going to order a set of -14cc pistons ,just kb ones, in standard bore (just gonna hone it)thinking bout changin the rods to scat/eagle i beams but i dunno if i'll bother.and i'm on the hunt for some cheap heads. the plan is to give it heaps of comp and run it on e85.dunno how long the bottom end will last though.
