Value thinking of selling

Do you you know what cam, heads (valve sizes and how much porting) and the compression of the engine?  Just trying to get an idea of the hp.  Thanks, Al

This is about all I can tell you. It's very strong but streetable.  I wanted torque and drivability.  It makes good power. Slightly rough idle. 6000 redline is what the guy at SCAT told me. It's not even broken in yet so all I can say is the torque is definitely there! I haven't been past 3800 rpm yet. Over $4000 long block. Full flow oiling. Brand new everything.

135 horse power.

With Weber 40 IDFs on it, it should idle smooth as silk, no matter what cam and rockers it has. At least once it's warm. They all spit and run rough when cold. But they smooth out when warm when set correctly.

Rob, nice car! Best of luck with the sale.

@ROBTRANSGUY-  135 hp is way more than what the 1500 4 cams made in the Carrera Speedsters so I'm sure it's a blast to drive!  And being a 2 liter, not being 'peaky', with great bottom end/lower midrange power and it all in by 6,000 rpm just makes it that more fun.  Sorry to hear you're selling your Speedster, and good luck with the sale.  Al

My mid 14 second Cal Look bug, with 1750 cc's, W125 cam, 40x35 heads, S&S 1½" merged exhaust and 44 IDF's would rev to 6500 with power, yet (when warmed up) idled so smoothly people would mistake it for a stock carbed 1600 and were very surprised when the engine lid was raised and told how fast it was.
