So, after spending all that money at the type 4 store, they wont give you any advice on your combo?
Or the other way around, I assume you initially discussed your combo with someone over there before placing your order...
I did not ask them. But I am fairly sure they would not make a recommendation. It comes down to how you want to use the tools they give you. If they said set it a 11:1
if you want the highest HP and you want a nice daily driver then they share some responsibility for you using their tool in the wrong application.
Everything is a compromise, to get a drivable DD you will have to leave some HP on the table.
I use the 163/86B web cam, my favorite for an engine this size. Lots of torque, bit lopey idle, but usable for street.
Pretty much going with the Type 4 version of the 86b. Slightly more duration on the intake at 284 and more on the exhaust at 300.
Based on a suggestion from Len I am having the ports ceramic coated which will help with the heat.
Type 4 confirmed the 8.5-9.5:1 range.
Should be nice.
Make it thump, I'd aim for no less than 9:1, set your timing for no more than 28* total, run premium and detonation won't be an issue.
You could run regular gas at 8.5, but why the fuch would you want to do that for?
Nickies you can run tighter ring gaps and a tight deck. With big bore head chambers and unshrouded valves you'll find you have to run a tight deck to get the CR you want.
Buy the LN ARP head studs, I also have the ARP case though bolts, but IMHO they're not needed.
