Hello all,
I have been looking for information on performance building the 170 ci straight six, however the results have been less than conclusive. The engine is in a 1966 Bronco. I was hoping to be able to reach around 150 hp or more. What do you guys recommend? I am definitely keeping this engine so swapping something else is not an option. I am open to any ideas but the simpler the better. Do you guys have any build-ups that you have known to work and what will the estimated horsepower and cost be? I have been looking at the Clifford Performance website to try to get some ideas, but I don't know what works and what doesn't with these engines. Keep in mind that this engine will be used on the street and running 4x4 trails, so it needs to be able to lug around the heavy Bronco.
Thanks for your help,
Morgan
