A 300 bhp engine is what Im thinking of possibly 350 and I can get that for 4- 5 k ish.I cant see me doing that with a type 4 or type 1 engine,as I need someone else to build it for me.I have never built and engine nor want to attempt doing it.I would have a crack at putting a 1600 twin port together but large type 4s are well beyond me in both budget and ability.horses for courses, I build houses I wouldnt want an engine builder to build me a house,nuff said.
Anyway thanks for the comment all are welcome.
I am going to do some more research and go through some more of the project builds on here again and other forums and start putting a parts list together to let people see what they think, and for them to leave comments.
