NQ's discussion topic on engine building brings up an old question that I'm sure has been answered many times but now that I'm looking at an engine build, I want to ask it again.
I remember quite a number of years ago when there were a number of "recipes" for engines depending on the desired outcome, performance or longevity and those that strike a good balance. My daughter's 1974 standard with its original 1600 DP and ?? miles is in need of a rebuild. It spent most of its life in the Texas/Oklahoma area so the body is in excellent shape and I want to put a fresh rebuild in it that strikes that performance/longevity balance. I'd like to keep the PICT-34 carb with SVDA and CompuFire but possibly add some pep. Any suggestions?
