WCF Posted September 23, 2020 Share #1 Posted September 23, 2020 Hay gang It's been a long time since we posted. Here at West Coast Fabrication we are reworking the 1100 Joyner installing a Honda K engine and trans, We will be posting a build program soon. At this time we do have a chery 1100 engine and trans for some one that needs it with long travel rear trailing arms no axles as they are already sold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volkz VLOGS Posted September 26, 2020 Share #3 Posted September 26, 2020 Nice! I'm going the same route myself with my trooper. I've supercharged the chery on a Haltech Elite 1500 ECU, custom intake w/ 42mm throttle body,93/E85 flex fuel... I'm in the process of finding its limit.. My K20 swap is on a pallet waitin for the pop! LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCF Posted September 26, 2020 Author Share #4 Posted September 26, 2020 The problem is the trans output shaft isn't strong enuf and will twist off at the case. and rod bearing lubrication is week. Still with 7 lb of boost you will make about 100 HP a little weak by todays standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan B Posted September 27, 2020 Share #5 Posted September 27, 2020 I would have the same concerns when boosting an engine. Too much boost can be expensive on the engine and drive train parts if they can't handle the extra torque. What might be the limit of boost (10%, 20%, 30%) over a normally asperated engine?

Volkz VLOGS Posted September 27, 2020 Share #6 Posted September 27, 2020 Well it's been supercharged for about 2 years now. If I remember right I hit 100hp on e85 around 4 psi at the dyno, went to a smaller pulley / cleaned up the tune and made over 150 at 6 psi that day. I've went even smaller since then and I'm hitting a little over 9 psi now.. Haven't been back to the dyno so current HP is unknown. I've broken axles and lots of u- joints but not the trans yet.. Most likely because my trans goes to diffs and not straight to the wheels.That and I don't launch it, knowing what I'm demanding from a "kei car" drive train. But now my regard for it's well being is gone with the k20 and 6 speed trans is waitin... LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

termite Posted May 29, 2021 Share #8 Posted May 29, 2021 Thank you Chris from WCF i got this motor and trans to install in a buggy i just bought. Chris was awsome a real great man and wanted to thank him. Instead of throwing the motor away he saved it and now gave it to me I drove 12 hours round trip but it was well worth his jenerosity. Thank You Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
