Power of 2V engine

[Anonymous]

hi guys,

first time post and i know you there is alot of 2V questions but i am excitied as i have just purchased a head. My questions are - is there any difference between a original 2V engine and one with just the 2V head? before putting the head on what are some of the first mods i should do to both head and engine to gain the most out of the motor for around a grand? how much work has to go into the engine to get it to 200hp? the head came with the original carb, is it worth changing it to a 500 holley/350 holley.

cheers

chris

I believe the motors are identical below the head. Have not compared distributors but nor have I seen a separate set of specs for a 2V dizzy.

For your thou - does that include labour? If yes, then Rollmaster timing set, ACL front cover gasket/seal set, balancer speedy-sleeve, non-Chinese thermostat, valve stem seals, check your water pump, thermo housing, welsh plugs.

If there's no labour in that grand, all the above plus a Crow 63602 cam, springs and lifters to suit.

Cheers, Adam.
