hybrid sticky!
Can someone in the know please create a sticky with all of the info you have on mixing a 257 block with 205 heads.
It seems like so many people are going this route these days and I have not found a concentrated scource of info. If this is not possible maybe we can get a a sub forum in built motors just for hybrids. appreciated either way! Please include trails, tribulations, should haves/nots, specs, tips, sugestions and any other pertinante info!

Cams while your in their would be well worth it. Thicker head gaskets to lower your compression.

I'm using a stock STi HG with my Hybrid swap. (ej25 bottom, ej20 top) with a vf-34. No problems, less than a quarter quart of oil used per 4000 miles, no tick, car starts up first time every time. The Cams on the other hand, I would say do immediately. It's the ONLY thing I wish I would have done when I had my car in the shop EDIT: if you want to see my build, please refer to to ---> http://www.xceedspeed.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=42477 Last edited by Ronin Quickblade; 06-03-2006 at 03:36 PM. |

The reason you can't find anything on that in here is that those are just mixing of stock components --> belongs in the conversions forum. I tried to get them to call it the Hybrid Motor forum, but people were too concerned people would think it too honda-ish.
Please try a search in there. |
