76 deg cam in l28

Sounds very nice, how much money does an engine like that cost?

 

If you have to ask, you can't afford it.....  

 

Seriously, a good motor can be built at an affordable price, <$10k, but as the sign said in Mad Max at the wreckers, "Speed is just a question of money. How fast can you go???"

 

My rebuild was about $11k, but that included all dyno time for the tune, a new clutch, new radiator, and some other bits and pieces and work that needed to be done atthe same time.

I know its a stoopid question, its just good to have a figure to dream about for the future.

Peter said to me not long ago that he can screw together a 2.9ltr long motor, with forged rods & pistons, head work & valve train for 7k,

that will make 190kw with the right induction & exhaust.

 

Is that still ballpark Peter?

yes i can build the long motor for that . extra for sump mods . it the external parts that ad up and they make the difference

I used to run an L28 with +60 pistons and 39/71 cam and it ran smooth as.  Sure it lumped but with the right torque converter and tricked auto there was never a drama on the street (aside from the fuel bill)
