minirotty Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 A 200hp engine shouldn't need to idle at 2k! should be 220 / 230 at a guesstimat also 2K revs is an estimate because of the Maxi cams and how long they leave the vavle seat closed for car is looking good so far. cant wait to see it finished thanks bud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 A 200hp engine shouldn't need to idle at 2k!should be 220 / 230 at a guesstimat also 2K revs is an estimate because of the Maxi cams and how long they leave the vavle seat closed for Cams for 300hp engines let you idle lower than 2k! If these dont then it'd probably be best all-round to change them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If these dont then it'd probably be best all-round to change them. they wont need changing as they are mountune spec maxi cams, they're built for the purpose of my engine, as said its estimate atm as I've not got it running yet, whatever it idols at i can guarantie it wont be the standerd RS 1k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no1speedfreak Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Mate gotta hand it up to you, this is dedication!! So much time, effort and money put into this car and the outcome is going to be mindblowing! Cannot wait to see the final pics! And 200HP in a FWD escort is still going to be punchy! When i get the money il fit an rs2k lump, this is a propper project and best of luck to finishing it. As to Lucifier 1 though, what a mess, i was in a crash that rolled only once and it looked bad but thats horiffic! the guys a saint if he walked out of that in once piece!! toby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
