OBX Engines

[Massive Type IV]

This TV idea struck my fancy some time ago, but I did not really have an application for a test engine, or any wasser parts to make it work.

I know interchange between engines really well, and thats a key with a conversion like this. The only problem I can see for most guys is that there are alot of machine steps that have to be made to get this all to work out, and that could get costly if the wrong route is taken. TV Joe has done this more than about anyone else, I'm sure and he can probably be the source for many guys. I plan on doing all my work myself, and making templates for most of it as I go along on the first engine.

The engine I can foresee is a factory, OEM performance engine, with CIS and a Turbo, made for demanding applications, like a bus or a Thing.

I do not see the point in inceasing bore spacing for a TIV pattern, and running a TIV head. I plan on keeping TI spacing and TI heads, atleast until shad gets his new heads done, then the upgrade would be tremendous!!

I plan on using ONE aftermarket part in my complete 2109cc engine, and thats a web Cam....Thats all, nothing else. Looking for down low torque from 500 revs and pulling to 5500 Revs, thats the redline...It may just end up being a big valve, split durationed and lifted SINGLE PORT!!!!! (non Turbo version of course)

My engine will be done shortly after my new shrouds that should be done in June. I plan on making a new shroud to fit the TV engine as well, if I like how it turns out.
