I'm rebuilding my engine for my 87 T2. Does anyone have any recommended modifications. Hopefully they will be inexpensive and for any part of the car, to increase handling and speed, cooling, and everything else.

are you doing the work yourswelf?



port that motha!

 

I'm doing the rebuild myself...



How should i go about porting it???



I've worked on chevys and basiclly all you do, if u don't wanna do any machining is go widen the ports w/a dremmel and smooth everything out. is there any rotary equivalent, and i need to pass emmissions.

you have to buy porting templates for it, cant remember who sells them though

 

racing beat sells porting templates...... from mild to wild kinda ports

 

mazda trix sells porting templates also (mazdatrix.com)there are alot of simple cheap mods to increase in those areas, for example strut tower bars, k&n and bigger injectors all these are cheap mods that add there worth.

 

Check the porting thread in the engine building section, its for an fd but some parts would be similar.
