[QUOTE="yne721, post: 4766901, member: 563261"] it's just a 1776cc. nothing crazy. ratio rockers, progressive carb, some performance heads.. didn't want to get too crazy because i still want to get decent mileage and keep it reliable as it's my daily driver... here's some pics though... engine out of the car.. [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/tommywinkle/1217395536.jpg[/IMG] the original engine, only had 42k original miles, it was just tired as ****... [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/tommywinkle/101_1102.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/tommywinkle/101_1103.jpg[/IMG] the new engine.... [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/tommywinkle/1217395626.jpg[/IMG] and in the car..... [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/tommywinkle/101_1104.jpg[/IMG] i'll see if i can maybe get a video tomorrow if anyone wants to hear the exhaust. it has a real nice tone. overall i'm really happy with the swap. it's not crazy fast, but it's defnately faster than my completely stock 1600 with FI [/QUOTE]
