197 POWERED CUP

[ASHY172]

Can anyone tell me if the 197 f4r 830 engine can be fitted into my clio 172 cup? Also wanting to know if the JC5 box will be a straight fit to the F4R 830..?? Sourced an engine with 16k for a good price so looking into doing the conversion over the winter so any info would be much appreciated.. Cheers!

Gearbox won't fit, pointless conversion tbh, spend the money it would cost you on throttle bodies.

Like scotty said bit pointless and quite a bit work for what results u will get,

But possible!!

 

[scotty2hotty81]

Cheers for the comments guys, I'm now thinking of rebuilding my current engine with forge internals, gasflowed head + cams ect I'll post a thread when the build begins!

If there was a way to get 12 cylinders into a Clio, I'll subscribe to that.
