is there any companies out there that make aftermarket internals for our motors? cams, rods, pistons. i am thinking of getting a motor and doing some heavy work to it. i guess it is my secret project. if anyone has read my old thread about getting rid of my cl well i changed my mind. so any help would be good

 

buy 1 rod and 1 piston, and send it off to JE or someone similiar to make you parts. this will also give you a flexible compression depending on your application.

 

Je,SRP,wiseco should be able to help you in the piston department and crower should be able to help you in the rods department. According to my engine builder, the timeframe is about 3-4 weeks on pistons and 3-5 weeks on rods. Good luck.

 

Everything would be pretty much custom. There are no off the shelf aftermarket internals for our car.

Like CleanCl said, buy a piston and rod and send it off to whovere to have them make you a custom one.

 

thank you i will be getting started as soon as possable

 

does anyone know where i can get a stock motor?

 

thinjim is selling one, if you want the internals, we can work something out, we are both in NY. i just need the block and intake manifolds, but i can eventually get another set back to you after i switch mine.

 

I would recommend CP pistons as we have had bad experience with custom JE pistons. Somehow they managed to make the half the intake ports too shallow and we bent some valves. Then they tried to tell us it was because it was put together wrong. But it wasnt, and CP was much easier to deal with. Just my .02 from some experience.

how do i get in touch with CP

 

check with Thinjim, he has cp pistons with his current motor he's building. He may have a contact person there.


Think he paid around 1200 for them, not sure exactly.


I haven't heard anything bad regarding JE pistons, 02av6 used them on his built j30a block but don't know if they had any problems.
