I bought nice set of SS HE along with a dual tip Triad Muffler a while back. I got them from John Kelly (Ghia Specialties). He had them on a big 4 also. Just wanted some input as to wether these will be sufficient? I would like to retain my heat if possible. The carbs are 48 weber's I believe. Not sure on the jets or anything yet. Bought the engine from Craig at Camp914. The only problem is we don't have any build info on it. I figure to put it in & see how it feels/runs.
This may be a dumb question but it was built off a GC 2.0 engine. Are the spark plugs different when you build a big 4 or do you still use the stock plug & gap? Obviously this is a new arena for me with the big 4. Any advice is much appreciated. I am hoping to put it in early next month. Just getting to prepping/fixing my engine bay while it is empty (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

Well sh!t, I guess I just don't know what to do for you 4 guys (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) You're right, a 2.4l 4 is bigger than I am used to seeing. I think the largest out here is a 2.6l 4 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) that is using the Triad headers as it does need them. However, the 2.2s are fine with the SSEs. I would guess the 2.4 is a toss up with losing heat if you go with headers. If I remember right though the SSEs have a larger diameter than the stock HEs which do help in this case. Just lose the heat and go with headers.
