just thought i would give a little insight into why im trying to source a GTi6 engine fromy ou fine people.

I currently run a 205 in the Channel Island Hillclimb and Sprints in the Modified Production 1801cc and Over. The car is full race spec but needs more grunt to keep up with a 440bhp Full Race BMW E36.

My plan for the engine will be to create a 2300cc monster........

Will be using a 96mm crank, safely going to 87mm bore with custom pistons and S16 rods (152mm i think). Pistons etc will be supplied by Matt at QEP (great guy) who is also helping and advising me throu the whole build, its in the planning and gathering parts stage at the moment and will be a big project to hopefully be finished by middle of next year (so long due to funds a little scarce so will buy parts as i go)

the aim is 300bhp and a stupid amount of torque

let me know your thoughts, concerns and any advice you may have will be gratefully appreciated

Those beemer engines are a beast, looking forward to watching this : )

sounds good, but i wouldnt bother putting carbs on there then switch to bodies, just go for bodies straight out. will be cheaper in the long run.

hope you have a diff in there !!!!

Yes an inlet manifold for 45 carbs and 45 jenvey throttle bodies is the same for 16v engines, obviously if your running an 8v engine with the carbs at moment it will be a different manifold.
