Post by: m44power on March 10, 2007, 05:45:06 AM

im thinking to swap a S14 cranshaft into my m44 i want to know if its possible with s50 pistons decked here is realy hard (near impossible) to find a m47 crank but witch is better ?
i was realy happy if i can make around 220hp of my little m44

i am not sure, but the cylinder spacing is bigger on s14 to the m42 ore m44.
so i belive the crank is longer.

220 hp on a 2,1 liter is hard to reach. metricmechanic got 204 hp on their 2,1L se http://www.metricmechanic.com

This is true.  It will not work.
