Is it really worth it? I know the potential is there, but will a PI gt motor be slower then a stockish B head motor?

it's a lot of work V to swap in a 4v.... i mean if you can get a badass deal on a 4v motor (complete, like a wrecked car) then yeah it would be pretty sweet depending on what you get. but 4Vs are more $$$ to mod and you can make a 2V fast as fuck
so it's kinda up to you how you wanna spend your money.

depends on what you want your end results to be.... if you are planning to go all out, it is better to start with a more powerful platform... If not, go with the PI you have already bro.

I agree, if i was to build a balls out modular screamer i would definitely start with a Big Bore topped with some 4V heads and a pair of Hair Dryers :)
BUT if you just want 300/400/500 hp then a 2V can get that done almost as easily as a 4V and since you already have a 2V it will be cheaper and easier.

keep in mind guys, he ALREADY has the pi engine.

correct. However i'm almost tempted to go get my mark 8 motor, and build a stroker/big bore high compression 4v, and make 400+ all motor and spray the crap out of it.

I made 500 rwhp with a 2v.

400+ on motor is going to cost you about 15k, is that worth it to you?

I mean, it's doable, easily. you don't even need crazy part's, but man they effing cost. unless you are just out to prove something, strap a blower and add some cams to your car for an easy 400.
