Performance Questions...

I have a 1.8 914 and I bought 96mm flat top jugs and pistons and a Web Cam 426 lift 262 duration. I am hoping for 100HP, could someone help in advice... I talked to a local shop in tujunga but to check and build my motor they want $800. Anyone know any good builders but reasonably priced? Also is the Bosch 050 Distributor better than stock?
I live in the Glendale, CA area but work in Orange so anything along the way is fine. Drop me a line (818)551-1735.

You'll get more responses to your question here but I can tell you that paying someone to work on your 914 is not cheap.

$800 is cheap for a rebuild on a 914 engine. I'd worry that the builders would cut lots of corners for that kind of money.

DIY, or pay someone big bucks. You can talk to the guys at FAT Performance in Orange, they've been pretty good in the past. But don't be surprised if the $$ is a lot more.
