EZ series motors, information
Posted: Tue Jan 19, 2010 8:35 pm
When I look at the specifics of the EZ engines, I see a lot of commonality between them and the EJ engines. I think it was Perrin that stuffed one into an STI, and I seem to recall that it was not real successful. Where can I find information on the weight, size relative to the car (not displacement, overall size). I was also wondering about the EE engine because it's a diesel engine and sometimes you can rebore or resleeve one engine from a family with parts from one of the others. This is pretty typically done on the SR20 engines as well as the Nissan L engines (2.4, 2.6, 2.8, and 3.1 litres). Basically I am wondering (just academically, I don't plan to do it) if a simple path might be to pick up rods & pistons and/or crank to get a "stroker" EJ25.
Thoughts? (I think the Sand Rail folks are doing this with the EZ36 motor and making clear over 1,000hp, but it's a little while since I've checked on those guys).
