Hi guys,
Heres a sneaky peaky at one of my developement engines. Its on the engine dyno now and for the rest of the week we are hoping for 280bhp+ and hope to push towards 300bhp N/A within the next few weeks.
I will post engine dyno numbers shortly.
Hope you like it.

From the pics... I would guess...

Block lined
Enlarged valves (maybe)
Pistons, thus maybe increased Comp Ratio... (but they don't look that special, so wont be silly compression)
Maybe an increase in CC....

All I will say, I hope it's been lined correctly.. the K series is very difficult to get it correct, for a long life......

I thought so....

But being blunt with you... if you had said 300bhp from a 2.0L K series NA.. then that would have been something special......

However, increased CC and 300bhp isn't that much to talk about....

Just my own opinion... knowing a little about what goes on in the US...

Hi Mike 300bhp from 2.0l is very very difficult and would cost around £30k+ to achieve.
And the US enthusiasts liar out of the arseholes about bhp figures so you cant compare or compete against bullshite figures that most of the US tuners state. A genuine 300bhp short block K-series motor is an amazing achievment.

Who has got a 300bhp short block K-series motor verified over here?

Yes, a true 300hp 2.0L will cost circa £35k (retail), thats the sort of money some race teams spend, if not more...

Peeps I know and have dealing with in the UK, work a lot with the most respected US engine developers hand in hand.... hence the statement I made about 2.0L+, you should be seeing 300hp+... no 'bull' either.....

I can't say who has varified 300hp+ K series engines here in the UK, but they are touring car engines...and I'm not talking Neil Brown engines btw....

good luck with your power

Hey, hope the engine comes together, I am sure you are going in the right direction with your midlands connection, but believe you are some hp away from 300hp.

Nice job of the boring and lining and i can vouch for it as we use the same equipment.

I wonder where ive seen that workshop. LOL :p

You take care

all the best for 2008
regards mike
