I have that motor...Originally Posted by ShelGame
I KNOW! whats the progress with it? is it time to sell it
wow..
you can see the port inspiration on the new 16v heads
curious, how long are the runners on the intake manifold?
< want to calculate what rpm they were tuning for>
I always wondered what they used for a throttle body? and the oil drains on the head look pretty strange too
It has accumulated about an additional .037 of dust, am assuming it will continue to do so.....I have many, many other projects. I'd consider selling it, but don't know what would be fair.....I KNOW! whats the progress with it? is it time to sell it
or how would you get parts for the head if needed? I wonder if it uses a neon sohc cam with the "hybrid" cam gear on it, or? what did you plan on doing with it? did you have a specific chassis you wanted to put it in?
Don't count on a part list for the custom one-off head, I bet you no one has it.
for sure, but a lot of stuff "looks" neon, wonder what is and what isn't? valves and springs shouldn't be to bad to find, rockers look neon, but the cam is?
Thats neon developement all the way other than shortblock.Id put it together and leave it on a engine stand.
Could have been a "cobble, cobble, bodge, cobble", "Yay 50HP on the dyno, that proves it runs, now let's do it properly..." or in other words, special engine is "special"

Just found the file that had these pics in it......problem solved.
People who actually buy cars would have been really unhappy with an natually aspirated 16v 2.5L vs a 2.5L turbo or v6. Giving up a lot down low where people actually drive for upper rpms that nobody uses. Could have killed the company with that choice.I am thoroughly disgusted, they had the best dam potential waaay ahead of anyone else- and they threw it away for what- a crappy v-6 imho, and choked 8 valvers.
AWSOME thread though!

Anything new?
i mostly agree with that.... its still a 4" stroke. its going to be like a N/A 2.4 with maybe a little more torque..... my folks loved their 2.4 in their cirrus.
