that's what I did, the generator does not turn very fast, but enough to cool the motor in between runs. I ran a battery charger also in between runs.

Too much cam, and exhaust, not enough head

Run the 5.4 rods, Cb wedge port heads, Fk-8 cam.

1-5/8 exhaust. car will run low 13's easy.

How are you planning on using this motor and what is it going into?

If didn't want to spend the money on a short rod, go with the 5.5

I'm just saying i used the 5.325 rods in my 2332.

Benifits-

1.All the tin fits, it will fit in a old bug easy, because it's actually ends up being a little narrower.

2. Tons of torque, the sh ...

Nothing wrong with a H beam rod, just that it's not need on most NA motors. It never hurts to go above and beyond though.

I like the stock rods on any engine where you don't need to grind the hell ...

Best rod out there for the money is the SCAT I beam IMHO.

Ran them in my 2276 , great rods, and a beefy rod bolt.

The rod bolt and end cap is the weakest part of the rod, is why I would not run ...

There is a great article about this in Feb 2012 issue of Hot Vws...page 40.

5.325 engine will be same width as stock.

Look dude, I have not cranked my aircooled up in 3 years, your car more than likely faster than mine...who cares. That's not the point.

Frankly, I pretty much lost interest in the aircooled cars, t ...

I'm running 26 lbs of boost, so I might stand a chance... Very Happy

But there are not many 12 sec hondas out there, 13 seconds would smoke most Civics.

Why do you say this? I dyno'd 116 HP at the wheels with my 1915 and the car ran High 13's.

I had planned to build something like this, but use the 2 barrel throttle body off a late 90's Z28. These are easy to find and cheap, under 50 bucks on eBay. With megasquirt, you could have a nice EFI ...

Your car should weigh about 1250 without driver, A "heavy buggy" might weigh 1400lbs.

100 hp is no problem.

I like everything but the carbs, looks like the cam was picked by desktop dyno or some other program.

My 2332 uses 106 degree lobe angle. Should have killer torque IMHO.

EDIT: reread your com ...
