Subject:      Boston engine upgraded Engine offer
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I have 2 long blocks with upgrades that I am offering to the list at the stock engine price of $2050 plus exchange as a promotion the first engine is a 1.9 with a new 1.9 cam reground to 2.1 specs. the heads are rebuilt AMC with new swirl polished valves and new guides I have done some minor porting and the high flow valve job In the future the price of this engine will be $125 for the cam update and $300 for the extra head work.

The second engine is a 2.1 with the now famous Robert Lilley cam that offers a slight bit more duration, rebuilt AMC heads that I have done minor porting to and the high flow valve job and swirl polished valves the price is $2050 plus exchange the price of this in the future will be $125 for the cam and lifters upgrade and $300 for the minor porting high flow valve job and swirl polished valves

the heads are a present still out getting flow bench tested. these heads do not have the full porting that was done to the first heads that I previously reported on. these are instead a more affordable less labor intense version based on the information gathered in my first head upgrade testing. I am taking this approach because it appears that the valve job and valve work had the most to offer in the way of increased low lift air flow I also did not have the swirl polished valves to test until now. I will offer the next round of results when the heads return in the next couple of days. Bob Donalds http://www.bostonengine.com
