>> Conclusion: am building a 2.0L as we speak, my plan is to put out a strong >> 90 to 110hp out of this one amd keep it reliable.

Yikes! I tried to catch up on this thread in the digest because I must have missed something. You know how to build a 2.0l aircooled to put out 110hp? That's nearly double the stock HP rating.

Did I miss something, or do I have the only 2.0l FI 81 air cooled factory rated in the high 60's HP?? (low 50's after 200K) :-)

If you do get there, please share, and I am not being a wise guy. I just think that much power requires something that won't resemble a 2.0l AC, if you add the caveat of keeping it reliable. Of course, I am thinking pretty much stock. What do you have in mind?

Thanks,

John
