All motor N/A Question??

[StinkinLincoln]

My F22A6 has 227k on it and I'm looking to have it Freshened up TOP and Bottom...How much do you guy think I should pay to have it done at a shop??

I'm just trying to get a Round About Figure...I have never had to get a motor rebuilt before..

YES I want to keep the A6 All Motor no boost plans.....so no H22 or other swaps!!!!

Do you just want the engine refurbished, or do you want to upgrade and increase your power as well?

Just freshin it up and mabe mild port/polish on the head!!

That matched with a delta cam I think would make for a nice street car...

A bisimoto stage 1 or 2 regrind would be a better cam than a delta cam.

HondaFan has a thread about a budget port/polish head package for around 600 I believe.

Is the Bisimoto Stage 2 a good street cam?? For a DD?? Not that mine is but I like to be able to take the car anywhere without Iseling problems!!

Any Clips or one running???

Well you would probably need/want a tune with a stage 2, but the idle is supposedly fine.

A stage 1 would probably be better for you then, but its not going to make that much power over stock....but neither is a mild delta regrind.

I have no problem getting the car tuned I just want it to retain good drivability!!

a 272 will yield over 150whp..how is that not much over stock?

Anyways, are you talking new rings, bearings, seals...etc.? If that's the case, you'll be spending upwards of $1000 for something like that. I'd charge $800 just for the labor and that's with me outsourcing the machine work.

I was thinking a 260 or whatever it is isn't that more comparable to a bisi stage 1?

You can't compare a delta regrind to the bisi regrinds. They are COMPLETELY different in the specs. Hell, the 272 redlines over 7k and puts out between 150-160 and a lvl2 redlines around 6.5k but puts out 160-170.

I'm not wantin to go crazy on the rebuild the motor is in great condition with no botom end noise at all and the top end is getting a little loud and sounds like it needs a valve job soon...But other than that she's great and STRONG!!

My Mods are...

F22A6

AEM CAI (not the shorty)
4-2-1 header.
Test-pipe.
Apexi WS2 Cat-Back.
Apexi SAFC2
5 Speed Conversion.
8 lb Aluminum Flywheel.
Stage 3 Clutch.
P/S, A/C, and Cruze Deleted.
Stock ECU

So I was thinking just freshin it up and add a delta 260 cam and having it tuned for good street use..

I wouldn't waste my money on a 260. A 272 is plenty streetable.

Do I need To upgrade the Springs with the 272??

[StinkinLincoln]
