2.5 Ecotec Engine Buggy

[@scuzzytwo7556]

very clean buggy.

[@bigheadedash2061]

Would be interesting to see if the LTG camshafts/other parts would fit onto the LCV/LKW. If they do it’ll be great to add the ZZP LTG stage 3 performance camshafts with its large fuel pump lobe

[@D6motorsports]

I thought about calling ZZP to see if they knew if the LTG turbo stuff would fit on the 2.5L Maybe they would also know about the camshafts?

[@bigheadedash2061]

@@D6motorsports The turbo manifold and all of the other hardware from the LTG looks like it can bolt right into the LKW but I’m not sure how much you would have to add for the 2.5L to support the turbo. It seems like a very capable 500+ hp engine but there’s no aftermarket support. You should give ZZP a call, It seems like they should know everything when it comes to the camshafts. It would be amazing if the ZZP camshafts fit in the LKW

Awesome Buggy! I'm getting ready to do a 2.5l LCV swap in my Baja Bug, where did you get your stand alone harness?

[@D6motorsports]

Steve Humphrey message me for contact info. I sell block off plates also.

I would love it if you flipped the ecu over. The connectors are literally scooping water into the pins. Cover them or somthing

[@D6motorsports]

All sealed connectors. Been like that for over 2 years with no dirt or moisture in them. In the car they are located in the harness engine bay environment.

Nice build 👍🏽 Question. I have the 2.5 LCV, assuming I replace my cover and camshafts, would I be able to run the same as you?

[@D6motorsports]

You should be good with what you have. I don’t think your going to gain anything?

How did the Subaru transaxle hold up? I have a very low hour predator x-18 intimidator i would be interested in trading if you're interested.

[@D6motorsports]

X-18 are a really nice buggy. Ive never scene one inn person before. Not sure if i could part with this buggy. I built it from the ground up. Where are you located?
