Re: Burtz Engine You will need every part except the block, crank, and rods.

Re: Burtz Engine I'm not a mechanic and I was more or less looking for a parts list that I can order from.
|
Re: Burtz Engine I am not looking for speed. I'm trying to get the parts to build an engine from the new block. My mechanic will be assembling the engine
|
Re: Burtz Engine If I were you I would probably take whatever information you get here back to your mechanic and discuss with him your "wants and needs". Unless going completely stock everyone has their idea of how an engine should be built.

Re: Burtz Engine In my opinion, setting up a Burtz block as completely stock is a waste of the block. The bottom end is so strong compared to an original block that any modifications will not effect the reliability. At least put a high compression head on it.
I have an engine that has very good parts on it and I plan to swap out a lot of the parts, such as the manifolds, head, oil pump, carburetor, flywheel, etc. Not the pistons and rings and gaskets, of course. And I will use new items like the clutch disk, throwout bearing, pilot bearing, etc. |
Re: Burtz Engine Sooner or later, one of the major parts suppliers will develop a package of parts and pieces to assemble a fairly stock Burtz block with most likely a 6.0 head. They will put a price on it and sell it as a package...People will buy the package...then the other suppliers will follow along. Terry might even put such a list together in partnership with one of the parts suppliers...Another Barn member took a shot at such a list a while back and made a guess that a comlete engine was in the $7,000 + - range...Ernie in Arizona

Re: Burtz Engine I would like to see some reliable engine builder build new engines using the new Burt's block and parts. Seems like that could be a good business.

I agree. I think I would be interested in that as well when it comes time for engine work on my car. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: Burtz Engine Ha, pretty soon, there'll be a glut of Burtz crate engines and they'll be going for $4000! :D:D

There is a list of parts and other info on the facebook page. List of builders. Best to use someone that knows what they are doing i'd say. https://burtzblock.com/distributors-builders/ |

Re: Burtz Engine Dont forget the EGGE pistons, these were what the bores are honed for, and get the modern thin ring ones, then get total seal rings for NO leakage, get a specialty motor cams camshaft, and 6,2 head,
A 97 carb and that engine will surprise you. Lawrie |
