Does anyone know of a place to find what is the max amount of horse power the S197 engine can handle safely without building the bottom end. I am looking for something that lays it all out there.
You forgot the correct syntax. j/k lol/Thread
The 3v is the devil's spawn.^ the 3v is gods engine![]()
LOL. I dont know. im n/a so not worried about the limits of the bottom end. A blown 2ver would know. its a different block, different pistons, different rings, crank doesnt matter becuase they both can handle a lot, rods are different, heads are different, cams are different. Different motor.answer my ? damnit

This issue has been beaten to death.
"450rwhp"
"500+ with a safe tune. been doing if it for x years"
"450 better safe then sorry"
"depends on the tune"
"depends on how you drive the car"
"i know plenty of guys running 520 stock bottom end"
Okay where did you find this not that I wouldn't take your word for but I heard many different hp numbers.

Not necessarily stronger, but they will make more horsepower safely because it is a much more efficient head design and takes lower boost numbers to reach a certain horsepower number.are the 3v stock bottems stronger than the 2v's?
That sums it up right there. Use SEARCH and that is what you will read.This issue has been beaten to death.

Get a blower if you want one and set a performance goal not a hp goal.
Put it to you this way there are guys in the 10s on the stock bottom end. Way past the point of needing a roll bar.
do a search damnit. The answer is out their. I promise.answer my ? damnit
