2200 potential
So, I am going to ask in this forum to find out the potential of a 2200 ohv Gm engine. Thinking of building a street sunfire, don't want that mess of a quad 4. Any camshafts available for a 2200? Whats the potential here?

Re: 2200 potential
The engine has virtually no potential. The head flows extremely poorly. The few heavily modified turbocharged examples have only put down as much power as a stock Quad 4.

Re: 2200 potential
Drop a few thousand into them and a turbo and you can get prolly 300whp...
But I am talking extensive motor work.
