Don't worry mate.... I doubt I'll have the stroker done before the end of the year.... but I will have the little 1776 rebuilt and in there....
Thats good for around 140hp..... Perfect for a quick street car and pretty ez to make happen..... You'll love it!

Would this 1776 be able to be drivin daily without to much fuss? wat type of carbs etc 140 hp sounds fun that would give alot of 1916 a shock good for
a low 16 sec?

The best times I had with this engine was a 14.8.... Ran consistent 15.1's.... And it was daily driven in Sydney and Perth traffic for over 14
years.... I also drove it across Australia a few times (Sydney-Perth, Perth-Sydney-Perth, Perth-Adelaide-Sydney-Melbourne-Perth)....
I run dual 40mm Delorttos, ENGLE 120, 69CW Crank and Shimo ported 044 heads with a Phoenix 1-5/8 merged header.
So I guess you could say it was a good driver!
