hey all
i want to do a 6A12/6A13 head conversion...
does anyone know where i can get a 2.5L naturally aspirated 6a13 engine from? i asked dave thomas but he doesnt have any available at the moment...
yeah its turning out to be a pretty expensive exercise cos the 6A13 block is physically slightly taller than the 6A12 block...so ill have to get new headers...also i think high compression pistons might be in order....as well as a programmable ecu....is it worth it just to keep it NA? its turning out just as expensive as turbo if not more expensive...oh welll.....
who cares... high revving, screaming NA engines all the way!
why not just put the 6a13 block in your car, it would be a lot cheaper, and you wouldnt have the problems with the 613tt motor, of the rear turbo not fitting infront of the firewall, and the intake pipes stopping the bonnet from closing
thats exactly what i was planning on doing...i dont want a 6A13tt engine...i just want the 6A13 block and ill fit my mivec 6A12 head onto it....its still gonna cost a fortune though...dave thomas is building one now and he estimates that all up it will cost about 7k!!! this is probly cos you need new modified headers, high compression pistons, ecu, etc...
