has anyone built a 3750?
Does anyone know if it would be possible to overbore the 3300 to accept pistons from a 2.5rs turbo? I remember reading a long time ago that the 2.5 was an overbored 2.2 and with a rather healty aftermarket following for 2.5rs turbocharging, why not use the equipment provide by the SVX's sisters.
also, I was looking on ebay and found this nifty little machine, could any of the engineers out there tell me if it's worth a hoot? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1842408017 Thanks, Chris |

Hmmm...
Interesting idea... I think it was '98 and earlier 2.5 RS that had the bored over 2.2... or maybe just pre '98. I knew when I was seriously considering one but I can't remember now. Then they redesigned it since the bored over one was a little weaker... thinner walls. Would be worried about boosting that bored over engine. However, it would be pretty cool to bore ours' over for (hopefully) a little bit more power. I think the stroke length is different, though, isn't it? Maybe just use the 2.5 aftermarket heads.
Hopefully someone knows a bit more. I am bettin' that that blower thing is a bunch of crap. Hey, if you could find anybody who tried one with possitive results, I supposed it would be kinda cool. Cheap extra 20 horses if it could do it. ![]() -Aaron
