long story short, something let go in my engine yesterday. and the block has a nice hole in it.....

so, laskey or inline pro
or
2jz

laskey has a block and crank for 400 all in all $3900

inline does not have any blocks, and price is $3800

2jz + trans + ect $3500

thanks

The 2JZ can be a monster. Its quite a bit of fab work to get it in, but it doesnt take much work to make power(but parts are expensive).

 

Stick with the F20C. What happend when your motor let go? Not a lot of people blow their engines here. Just curious...sorry to hear.

 

stick with your motor.. it would cost 3 times as much just to get the 2jz in to the car and to make the same power

 

this is the funny part andy!!
i was just at 2 rpm moving the car to wash it when i hard a big crunch and the engine stoppped.
looked under the car and to the rear of the engine by "bell houseing"
was a nice hole!!!! and 5 quarts of oil on the floor...
not to shore what let go, but i am taking the engine out in the next two day... will keep you posted....

its f**k up... just spent 8K on boost a year ago

 

wow, so you werent making a power pull or anything. Just basically low rpm and then BOOM...thats odd. I really wonder what went. here I was thinking that you were hammering on her and she let go at the top of 6th gear or something

Go back with another F20C though, the 2jz is neat but the f20 is SO CAPABLE. People are making 400-500-600-700 hp on stock block!!

 

Id stick with the f20c, Ive personally seen Jeremy at inline pro build an engine Not start to finish but a good portion and it is unreal how clean and anal he is. I am going to have them build me a shortblock as soon as i can afford it. Inlinepro has such a good reputation on this forum for a reason.

 

if i blow it at 9 grand and clutching the hell out of it.. i will say dam thats sucks but i push it.

but not even 3k rpm and there she blows.... thats what piss me off.

anyways, it happend and that how the world turns....
well its time to shit out some cash and blow some psi

here is a question, laskey dose not have any f22 blocks
if i go full built, i want a 2.2. can a 2.2 crank fit a f20 block?

thanks

Just a suggestion. Haven't heard why people don't use them but ERL Performance builds some nice motors and is usually price competitive.

Long story short, I recently removed my f20 as it was done. I decided to go with an F22 swap. Glad I did, its just a better motor overall. Definitely felt the added trq and power at the same boost.
