Fiat 2.0l TC 132 DB 2AO Engine

[cypriot]

Hi all,

I am trying to complete Fiat 131 Abarth Gr. IV replica, most of the welding work finished, I need 2.0l Fiat Twin Cam engine to use at this car. By the way I found one which has 132 DB 2AO engine code. I made some search at internet and discover that 132 DB 000 engine is used at Fiat 131 Volumetrico models.

there is a description about that engine is prepared by Russ from RPM Motors, as I understand it is converted to naturally aspirated unit there is no supercharger, seller told that it is about 170 - 180hp but need checking because it is dry stored for 15 years.

I think it will need new full set gasget, piston rings etc.

what I should do with this engine to get 170-180 hp at the rear wheels ? already there is no volumex supercharger with the engine.

I prefer naturally aspirated engine, which will be easier for me to find performance inlet manifold and double 40 Webber carbs.

waiting your opinions.

thank you

Ali

Ali, hi

either of those engine codes will be fine, all the 131/132 8v 2 liter blocks are the same.To get the kind of bhp you want you need to go big valve StIII race.
