Nah. That must've been another one. Coz I wasn't even reading sreat machine back in 2000 lol.

There's a more recent one. 300hp I'm fairly sure. Although 200 would still be nice......
Any idea how much it cost to get to that spec?

Honestly? No idea, I haven't been looking at that side of things with the 202.

lol $500 for stock rods that are the same as blue and black motor? Gotta be a joke.
Lifter and cam wont cost more than 200. Dont waste time on porting heads either get a yella terra or use a 12 port efi one.
Balance bottom end is likely to cost $250-$350 depending on your rod crank and piston combo.
You could get a race series rebuild kit for not much more than $500 maybe $700
double row timing kit WTF??? they run helical cut gears that mesh together either get a nice aftermarket set of them or go some striaghts if you want a bit of noise. Cost about $100 or less.

Machining wise your looking at
$200 for bore and hone
$90 to deck block
around $300 plus to line hone crank and cam tunnel
depending on the head you have and what needs doing can cost up to $500 but you could get a reco stock one for half that price
throw in the bottem end balance your looking at a total of $1200-$1500 for all the machine work
another $1000 for all the parts and it $2500 then you either assemble yourself or pay someone to do it.



Best way to make more power is to build a decent 12 port motor use a yella head and some flat tops run a decent cam and run efi manifold with aftermarket ecu should make 100rwkw or there about with that.

Stock efi made around the 117kw mark and theres some big gains to made just with an aftermarket ecu
