Misc 2L questions



Phil,

I have to disagree with everyone and say that this combination should never
be run together.  The dangers are more to the passengers of the car and not
the engine.  My suggestion would be to pull the entire set up out of the
car, crate it and ship it to me for further testing.  As I offer this as a
service, all expenses incurred would be on your bill...

Seriously, sounds sweet.  Hope we get to see this one at Cincy this coming
year.

Yeah, this is CIS (84.5).  Interestingly, there is no
knock sensor on the car.  Instead, he has installed a
Jacobs ignition and running premium fuel this thing
absolutely never has pre-ignition.  It is incredible. 
I will also note that going up and down for 5 hours
over the Appalachians, I rated 28 mpg.  I thought that
was damn good, too, for that engine combo.

I have to admit, it delivers every bit of happiness at
the stoplights that I wanted.  It is a fat little
motor, that is for sure.  Check this - a fairly new 3A
(22K), a Eurospec head w/ 272 cam (sounds great, idle
is nice), a match-ported intake, and a Neuspeed TB
with that Jacobs ignition.  Soon I'll be adding a 2H
tranny modded with 100mm drive flanges (essentially a
4K tranny).  So you know I will be digging it out at
the lights.  hehe

Thanks for everyone's answers - much appreciated.
