2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 motors / strokers
ya that is amazing. thats insane power for all those stock parts.
NO more fancy cnc'd spacers and double gaskets.
When i did my tbelt and the spacer fell out.. i was like.. wtf is this?! Took me a good 20 mins to figure out where it came from.
Any my 2.4 sounds quite healthy at 8500.
Sure the 2.0 is obviously an awesome route, you get to keep the same block that came in the car stock feeling motor but being built you can rev it to the moon. Thats what I would have done however I threw a rod through the block and it would be crazy for me or anyone else who damaged their block to go and buy a 2.0 block because the cost would be outrageous
I started a thread called 2.1 vs 2.4 because I was torn between the two and couldn't decide which to go with. They both are great builds. I'm runnin an FP Red right now and at first I wanted to go with the 2.4 which would be perfect for my CURRENT setup but, after awhile I might decide that I want to get a bigger turbo setup and for that the capabilities and advantages of a 2.1 excede the 2.4. Yeah the 2.4 is a great setup for daily driven vehicles or if your going to be doing road course/autocross but really is it? The best Rod ratio from the two is the 2.1. So in theory the 2.1 would last longer under the same amount of stress. Im not ******* either build and I think it/s a toss up. Just pick one and stick with it

You can't go wrong on either build honestly, reputable shop and quality parts and your gonna make really good power, bottom line.
I don't have to worry about HG, spacers or nothing like that. So the strokers have a little more power 1000 RPM before me....while they are in 3rd gear shifting to 4th I am still in 2nd gear (just a little exaggeration) making power.

and this is why the smaller motor wins at drag racing. It can run at higher rpm staying in the lower gear longer which multiplies torque accelerating the car faster.
So then what is the ultimate road race motor (especially with class considerations)????
With groups like NASA you run on a hp/wt ratio, but tq. is unlimited! You also need a motor that can take being run at 10/10th's for 35-40 minutes wheel-to-wheel or 8/10's for hours in an enduro.
Is it possible to build a (relatively) bulletproof safely-tuned 370 hp motor that can produce gobs (400++) of tq. and last 2-3 seasons without a rebuild
