oh, duh.

totally goodfed on this one..

 

[Mueller]

neat project, bad title....not a hemi based combustion chamber/piston design

 

[wingnutty]

except the dome shape of the "hemi" same principle centralized spark ,valves located opposed and canted toward center of chamber .and I had a set of vw heads hemi cut to lower comp ratio was going to try same thing here hence the title besides someone already had volvrolet

Is this project still in the stage of empty block dumped in a rusty frame or are you just teasing us?

DUDE

I go to his house almost everyday and it looks completely different.

I helped him get it all off the trailor, 2 days later I came back and it looked like that.

Dude don't mess around.

edit:// he needs a timing belt solution for 16v/b230

You can block mount the dizzy Can't you?

yes you can, but some would rather hack firewalls.

 

[wingnutty]

Needs a little wiggle space as well as dizzy,also looks cleaner w wires under vc

 

[WillettRun?]

little bidda room there, and a little bidda' swingy weights and advance (er retard) curves and a this and a that

modify a KJET 240 turbo dizzy for SC16v win, shorten it, and run a saab crab cap in the stock 240 hole.
