my new motor



Its the best out of the 2 motors i have. It has a Universal Type 1-3 case, 040 heads, stock rockers, stock cam, only has less thean 7k miles, the heads are super clean like they just came off the shelf.I got a standard header, glasspack (its leaning on the wall) bosch 009, bosch blue coil, 34 pic carb.Basically its stock but its my first motor.
The other I may use the longblock section as a core to get a basic 1776-1914 if possible.

After its on the road which should be either july or august (one of the 2) and after I give it the stance that I want I was thinking of going with bolt on power since i have a c/w crank already and it was rebuilt couple years ago.How would a 1600cc react to 1.4:1 forged rockers (with shortened pushrods), merged 1.5" header w/ hideout muffler, big valve heads with 40x35mm valves (since everyone says its all in the heads, where the power is at) dual 40IDF Webers, upgrade from a bocsh screamer kit to whatever, and use stock cam, and the other internals.Reason for this is Im on a budget so, bolt on power would be best and plus I wont need to tear the motor fully down for this since it will be my daily driver.

anyone know if the Scat 47mm single barrel dual carbs would work on a mostly stock 1600cc?

a friend of mine races (a '65 i think) completely stock, apart from 2 single bore Kadrons, a Kadron exhaust system (its actually crappy and discontinued) and the latest addition was a set of 1.4:1 rockers along with shortened pushrods.

The kadron muffler is similar style to the glasspack, but the header is one of the worst from a flow point of view.

Considering the lightened weight and short ratio gear box it accelerates really well and has no hesitation if u hold the throttle around mid range and floor it suddenly while cruising (it is still street legal). it gave the feeling of accelerating a bit slower than my 1776 in a 1303 with a 1300 gearbox and full interior etc. we never went head to head. you really need to rev it hard thought...
