Ok guys im planning on buying a motor from Spark Racing. The #'s they list on there website seem to be a tad bit high. tell me if they sound right thanks

Naturally Aspirated Street engine
Price $5495.95 Estimated at 220hp and 155trq
SPARK-1 LS/VTEC

Block: B18A/B 2.0 liter
Darton Ductile Iron Sleeves
Arias 11:5 Forged Racing Pistons 84.5mm
Eagle Rods
LS micro polished crank
VTEC oil feed line with fittings

Head: B16A

It doesn't say whp and wtq, so I would say no problem hitting those #'s.

 

that price sounds like a rip off. you can get all that stuff for cheaper anywhere you go

That price seems pretty fair to me... I spent way more than that on my motor build.

 

That's a very decent price for a motor making that kinda hp and already assembled... in fact for a 2.0 liter... that's a great price. I'll tell you one thing... it's should make more than 220 to the crank.

 

good price, good set up...realistic numbers What ECU? that can add up too including dyno-tuning.

 

Those are wheel hp numbers the motors are can make more hp and have alot of potential its just up to you to add all the proper compents as well.. the numbers that are stated are all referenced from past projects and builds done at spark racing

I think own3d with the three. LOL I think price is high for a do it yourselfer. For someone going out to buy a pre built professionally done race motor with #'s to back it up it's GREAT.
