To start off, I would like to begin building my 2.4L and hoppefully have it done by the end of this year. I have a 4g64 block and crank just collecting dust so wth.
I plan on going all forged internals with a 1g head, 20g, and all supporting upgrades. Aiming for 350-425whp on e85 (Station around the corner).
Only thing that has me worried at this point is the transmission. The car will never see the dragstrip or hard launch at any point. Will be my daily driver and might see Auto X once every other month. Would also be nice to pull on a couple of rustangs on the streets.
So my questions is, do I really have to get some crazy built transmission? Or do you guys think a Stage 1, maybe 2 from Shep will be enough? I know its the torque that will eventually destroy the transmission, or maybe a hard launch. But what if it never sees a launch?
Also, you guys think the transfer case will be good? Just trying to get some info from people who are running 2.3L/2.4L AWD cars.
Ive searched a couple of days now with no luck. Most threads I found are members warning others about hard launching and what not. So any information will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
