Redfox340 Posted January 23, 2003 Report Posted January 23, 2003 Ok, we all know that the Getrag 282 will bolt up to the DOHC. But without any major modifications... can you stuff the DOHC under the hood of a Beretta? - RedFox340 Quote
Vegeta Posted January 23, 2003 Report Posted January 23, 2003 nope. The engine bay isnt deep enough, and the width isnt going to make the belt easy. It takes MAJOR work, aka cutting and welding to even think about fitting it. Same with the J body. I wouldnt be using a W body with the DOHC if I could use a J body. I prefer the room and interior of the W bodies anywya but the weight isnt too practical without the space reason. Quote
Redfox340 Posted January 23, 2003 Author Report Posted January 23, 2003 Vegeta, Ok, thanks... I had a guy that e-mailed me that wanted to do a swap out for a LQ1. Wouldn't that be the coolest?!?! L-Body DOHC? Hmmm.... - RedFox340 Quote
eclipse5302 Posted January 23, 2003 Report Posted January 23, 2003 Yup, Ben is right...no room. Here is a guy who is (was) trying it. Read about it, click on the right hand side on the "3.4 DOHC Cav" button. He had to cut/remove all kinds of stuff. Quite a project. http://www.geocities.com/jeremygonyou/ Jason Quote
