Yep!!!
Just torqued my mildly ported and polished 1.9ner head yesterday...whahoooo!!!
Man I can't wait!!!!
As soon as I get this engine swap done for a customers 2.5 DOHC Mazda. I get to move "Blackie" into her initial loading bay. I have to fit her out with some new exhaust and up her brakes. I have decided to drop the sub-frame to fit her out with the running gear, as it is soo much easier in most ways than cherry picking the engine-trans unit in through the bonnet hole(bonnet removed of course). Anyway, I must say the 1.9 block has got to be one of the heaviest blocks I have ever worked with. It is amazing to think of the torque/hp people are creating with such a little bity tiny block, its almost cute, it is so small. She should be around 130hp and 180-200tq when the project is done. Nothing exotic, still Bio or Min fuel. Pix soon!!
Cheers
