solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Well it's been what..just over a year since I blew up the stock block, and my forged piece is finally ready to ride. Just waiting for the head which I will be grabbing sometime next week. Figured i'd post a few pics before i get it up and running. Shooting for 450-500whp, and high 10's on some 26 inch slicks, built trans w/ lsd, and suspension. season is pretty much over here in the northeast, but it'll be done for spring easy :6

sick! cant wait for videos ;D

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

sounds like a good plan 8)

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Glad to see that trash can finally coming together for you Pete. Let me know when you guys are going to build your new turbo set up. I'll take a ride down.

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Looks beefy.

Are those pistons gas ported?

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

No ----, compared to even a sleeved B-series, that block looks like its ready to take some serious abuse. Closed deck ftw.

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

your gonna ---- that up also.

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

how reliable/strong is this, really?

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

With Quads, the head is usually the first to give. BTW, 086?

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Yah, give us details about head/gasket and transmission mojo. No one I know has ever heard of a serious Cavalier, I think it'd be pretty sweet to roll out and take people's money in one.

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Just buy a tow truck now :P.

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

At 4 psi that thing will really rip ;) :P Looks nice man, hope it all works out :y

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

where to start

no, weisco 9:1's .020 over

That is not true at all for this motor. Technically, the quads stopped in 95 (2.3) and the 2.4 took over from there, which is what I have. The 086 (high output) head flows awesome and can rev to 7400 i believe in stock form, but those motors blow headgaskets like no tomorrow. A lot of people throw those heads on the 2.4 blocks making sort of a hybrid deal, but it raises the compression through the roof. 11.7:1 from the stock 9.5:1. So in order to do that, I would have to run dished pistons to obtain a still high compression of 10.5:1 or something. I just decided to skip all that bullshit and build the 2.4 head. Its got 086 cams, springs, and retainers. Stainless valves, bronze guides, 3 angle valve job, and ported to high heaven with an intake mani josh is gonna build me using velocity stacks, 2.5 runners, etc., oh and a 75mm ls1 tb. Headgaskets are not really an issue. I'll be running a .074 cometic gasket. The stock 2.4 oiling system sucks dick, plain and simple. The 2.3 oiling system is pretty stout, so I did what a lot of guys do and did a 2.3 oiling conversion. Not something I could have done myself and took the machinist 8 hours, but well worth it. Transmission is a stock izuzu tranny with cryoed 2.2 gears. 2.2 gearset has a shorter 1st, 3rd, and 4th gear. Think of it as b16 ratios for you guys lol. Also got my hands on a set of axles off a stock high output car. Those stock axles have held something like 600 ft/lbs 1/4. All that on some 15x7 motegi trak-lites and 26" MT slicks.Suspension consists of koni reds, and ground control coilovers. Tuning with hptuners, basiclly just a run live program such as uberdata or chrome. Oh, for a turbo kit i'll be running an sc61, tial 38mm, 3" charge pipes, and some sort of crazy turbo mani. I think that about covers it, any more questions just ask.

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Looks tits :6 I had been wondering what was happening with this beast.Have many J body guys taken to this level before or are you kinda pioneering the way?I always wondered why i never seen any really built ones.

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Who's making the mani?

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Sounds sweet.

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Pete, it's nothing more than an name change due to the OHC tainting it. If it were really different, Quad parts won't bolt to it ;)

Did you break the governor? Otherwise you'll be jammed at 108. Ask Spyhunter

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

is that why the whole displacement, head, block, and oiling system is differnt? Pretty sure i Just named all components of the engine ;). Yes I already disabled my governer. Thats how I blew up my stock block setup. 5th gear pulls own me :1

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

You forgot to mention the JDM taillights. :P

Sounds sweet pete. You better have this ------ done by the JYR '07 Summer visit O0

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

You mean the one where you visit me, and lick the meth sweat off my ballsack, yes?

OMG, like, Frankis going to America! FGTA!!11

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Oh Christ. And so it begins. FRANKS GOING TO AMERICA!!!!

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

i cant wait to get my built motor up again and we are seriously gonna have to have a meet and race. Yours looks like its coming along great!

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

fuckers gonna rip nicely :y

i'm gonna have to stop over some time and chrisom it with some cigg smoke :6

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

How much does the cavy weigh?

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

baptism at it's finest

2800 stock, but i've gotten it down to right around 2650. gonna try to go at it with teh plasma and take a little more out eventually.

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

ha ha ha

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

the block looks sweat good luck with it

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Should man and cavalier be put in the same sentence? :-*

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Nice build. Can someone let me in on the "Franks coming to Areica" thing?

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Only Frank can. He is the chosen one.

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

FGTA!

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

everything sounds ------ awesome EXCEPT one thing, hotrex building your intake manifold... i wouldnt count on that, but you do know him personally so maybe he'll come through

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

Josh is a good dude, he just loses touch with anything at the other end of a keyboard.

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

---- thats a solid build ... good ---- :6

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

thanks guys

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

What the ---- is Areica? ???

Re: solid deck built 2.4 madness
 

it's the new spot.
