RANT You will be hard pressed to replicate the combo that will net you 175 HP easy ENDRANT
You need to pick up a set of 96 mm pistons. Longer cylinders aren't necessary and OEM German cylinders are best. Type IV rods are weak. Best bet is Type I rods. But this means custom pistons. Which means you gotta know pin height, ring heights, etc. Larger intake valves are fine. If you want your power to start a 4000 rpm and peak at 7000. Smaller valves keep the air flowing nicely and boost low RPM power, but you reduce top end power (top end can mean 7500 RPM, ie, no power loss for street motors). If you decide you want some large valve heads, let me know. I have a set I'll make you a deal on. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
