 Topic: Mild WC build
Posted: 25 Feb 2016 at 9:48am |

I gotta an unstyled WC with a 201 motor. It has a 4 1/8 bore with flat tops and I'm adding a 45 crank shaft. What carb should I use and what kinda horsepower should I expect. Thanks.

probably the easiest would be a Tsx-464 which is a WD45 carb or the D17 equilivent i dont know the number

What brand of flat tops? Some don't offer as much compression as stock so HP may be lost. You can fit a D19 carb on the manifold with some mods to the bolt holes. Your manifold may not work if it is an older one as I think it is smaller than a D17 style

I'm not real sure yet on the brand of flat tops. This motor was put together not long ago by someone else with all new parts. I haven't had it long at all and found the webs are split between the sleeves letting coolant in the oil. I'm transferring everything into a donor block and wanting to add some compression with a 45 crank. Just wondering if I should do anything else while it's apart and what carb to feed it with. Thanks

Depending on the pistons, you will need new ones. The piston pin hight determines the compression ratio. The crank will drop right in and the rods will work. Pistons might interfere or have sky high c/r.

If the sleeves have ANY ring edge in them, you cannot install the WD-45 crankshaft and shove the pistons up past the ring edge. If you don't have a WD-45 manifold or newer, you need one.
