RhysN | Posted - 20 Apr 2017 : 20:20:02 Melle, I have just spent the last hour using the search to see what I can find, and to be honest I haven't come up with much. Please see new thread as feel I have messed Aidans' one enough. |

Betsy67 | Posted - 20 Apr 2017 : 18:32:58 Melle. What parts do you have left for the 1.7? |
RhysN | Posted - 20 Apr 2017 : 15:50:32 Melle, I thought you could pen this so that newbies like me stop asking dumb questions :) |

RhysN | Posted - 19 Apr 2017 : 21:04:47 New thread coming on a "how to build a nice road engine" ? |
melle | Posted - 19 Apr 2017 : 20:28:18 All V4 blocks are identical, bar the difference between the "early" open deck blocks and the later, more common, closed deck engines and their respective types of heads. For a "performance" engine you want a closed deck block to start with and the type of inlet manifold, crank, pistons, camshaft, valves etc. that fit your aspirations/ wallet. I have loads of blocks in my workshop in NL, but you can find one closer to home easily enough.
It's easy/ cheap enough to build a very nice road engine, it's the last bhp you need deep pockets for. I would only ever build a race/ rally engine if I would use it in anger, for (spirited) road use "fast" cams, big valves etc. are a waste of money in my opinion. Each to their own though!

RhysN | Posted - 19 Apr 2017 : 08:25:35 A somewhat general question, but relevant I hope. Is it worth finding a core engine t build as a "good performer" for down the track? If so, any suggestions for the core, then buy lots off you Melle. |
melle | Posted - 18 Apr 2017 : 20:51:29 I keep the opening post updated; a flurry of more recent posts has been removed by a mod but for reasons unknown to me some old posts have remained.

RhysN | Posted - 18 Apr 2017 : 20:45:10 I'm confused Melle, last post is last year, but this one says "this is what I have at the moment" ?? |
melle | Posted - 18 Apr 2017 : 20:26:26 Here is what I have at the moment: http://www.saab-v4.co.uk/speedball/topic.asp?topic_id=16437
