Frankenmotor Questions
Posted: Mon Jul 25, 2016 4:26 am
Hello gents! I'm working on swapping my 86 BRAT with an EJ22T I bought for cheap and just have some questions. Supposedly it had a spun bearing but I took it apart and everything seems fine...crank looks good as well as the case itself. They'll be going to the machine shop for cleaning and inspection though. I'm having trouble finding rod and main bearings for it...Rod bearings I'm pretty sure I can use 257 bearing without issue (going to use STi rods and ARP connectors) and I can not find a piston for the stock bore. I have a set of 2.0L WRX heads lined up that I'm wanting to use so I would rather not bore out to 2.5 if I can avoid it. Also using WRX manifold, ecu, thinned harness, TD04, and TMIC. Aside from custom sets, does anyone know where I can find a piston to support atleast 400 awhp (on E85) as well as main bearings? I was leaning towards King but I've heard great things about ACL as well...couldn't find anything on either of their sites. Thanks in advance!
