gt-40 crate motor question

[94opalgt]

im lookin into buying a 345hp gt-40 crate motor and it looks like they only offer them with the 93 water pump and timing cover set up.my question is will this work with my alt bracket and pwr steering bracket off my 94?if not,why not?i guess i could just take the cover and stuff off my motor and put it on the crate motor but that just seems like a pain.any help out there.

You will have to take your 94 stuff off to work, I'm not sure but I think you will have to take of valve covers too.

i think i found one that comes set up for the 94.i have to call summit to find out.and i was wonderin about the valve covers,and also the oil pan.im not sure if they are the same or not.

Why not go CHP? Same price, lots more power.

i would not get the gt 40 crate. a freind of mine said while attending UTI, they dynoed a 345 hp version at a little over 200. also, another freind of mine has one in his fox body with all the supporting bolt ons and me and him are neck and neck. check my garage for my mods. this is me OFF the bottle by the way.

CHP is a company that makes engines, like DSS and such

CHP is Coast High Performance. Run a Google search and you will find them.

HERE is the engine you should get....

J/K.... but for real... why do the 331's cost more than the 347's??? You would think they would be the same price..... if anything, the 347 being more because of the larger pistons.......

 

[SeventyMach1]

OK.... scratch that.... I just seen they are the same price. There are just different options......

I have that engine you are going to buy. I had to reuse my oil pan and pickup tube, dipstick, water pump, harmonic balancer, valve covers and thats about it if I remember right. My car is making the same power it did when I had my P head setup. Oh yeah I would replace the stock oil pump with a high volume as well.

Wow, can't they be held liable for advertising 345 HP and only putting out 200??
