Title: Still looking for a Samurai....Engine questions
Post by: killswitchengage on March 01, 2007, 10:08:56 PM: newb stuff here... so a stock Samurai has like 84-86 hp????maybe 100 with lots of mods???? how many ft.lbs stock???? can a 16v head be used on an 8v block? cuz a 16v engine swap will prolly cost as much as the whole vehicle. newb newb newb...

Post by: john1974 on March 02, 2007, 06:17:54 AM: Yep if the 1.3 is in decent condition, Ive had a 1.3 SPOA samurai with 31x10.5 pull 70-75 MPH no problems all stock motor. Now there are some cheap things u can do like KN airfilter, lighter underdrive pulley, all this does make a difference Ive done it on 2 sammys. But the best mods you can do for it is tracker/kick ring a pinion grears in the sammy diffs, and a weber.

I have done this on my most recent samurai and its nice to be holding 7-75 in 5th gear.
