[QUOTE="Zcat7, post: 582398, member: 14023"] I built a 1776 with a W100 cam for the torque lower down reasons mentioned above. Having got over a few carb jetting/venturi and dizzy advance issues I can say that I'm well pleased with the performance (I came from a 1641 and the experience is chalk and cheese). One thing I would add to atafonso's wise advice, as I found it quite a factor, is what wheel/tyre combo you will run? I went from 195/70 x 15's on the rear to stock 185 r14s and that changed the overall gearing substantially (184 x 14 makes the gearing longer/taller). So maybe think about where you will end up with your setup, especially with a 6 rib box, which has the tallest gearing already. I'm also interested in the idea of a stroker crank, as Trikky 2 suggests but would like to know what other changes need to be made? I went 1776 because I understood it to be the biggest capacity without changes to the case (grinding out for clearance), tinware (does the engine end up wider?), heads etc Finally, atafonso, could I be cheeky and get the shots of your head mods also please :) [/QUOTE]
