help w/ 2.4L engine project
guys;
looking for help and opinions. the patient is a stock 2.4L CIS T engine. 7R case ~ 100,000 miles. looking to build something up for warm to hot street use & DE events (SWB car). i don't want to split the case. i was encouraged to start with a set of 2.2E P&C & webers. carbs i have and i'm more comfortable with them than MFI. there must be something to the P&C idea as they're tough to come by. (what IS IT about these anyway ??) can i keep the cast iron cylinders and replace the CIS pistons ? i understand new rod bolts are a must. any other "gotchas" ? i presume these cams are not worth reusing in this application. comments ? sorry, for the litany of newbie questions. all help greatly appreciated.
cheers
jerry
