  1. yeah 295 hp like alo to me... the thing is if you stick with a 2L you can pick one up for piss alll and slowly build it up yourself and i think it will go pretty damn hard if you do a decent build.

    The Shock Poll

    thats a fucking steal... adjustable? i paid $200 each for my konis and that was with a bit of discount

    The Shock Poll

    Yeah i looke dat bilsteins... at the palce iwas buying from they were wuite a bit more expensive so i got some adjustable konis... very good. ride a dream... wish i could get short enough ones for the front without to much effort
  4. If it is a regrind yes.... i would think skimming the head would advance it slightly... but i'm not realyl sure.
  5. Shouldn't do shit... even if its over where the gasket seals it would haev to be a decent scratch/ gouge.. the valve quite often are ver pitted anwyyas...
  6. Has your cam been reground? if it has it may need dialing in.. well Xflow ones do i'm not sure abotu OHC ones but i guess an adjustable cam wheel would do the trick... https://www.burtonpower.com/default.aspx
  7. i think the best way which i have seen is to paint it a base colour and stick coloured vinyl cutouts on it it looks mean... just buy some rolls of adhesive ninyl and go crazy with a knife you can always peel it off

    turbo 1600 crossflow

    It's just you! .... Xflows LOVE revs... even my sport revs to a good 6000rpm totally standard and i havn't even touched the engine since i got it of an old d ude whos had it for 15 years... So probably hasn't been tuned for a while

    turbo 1600 crossflow

    Tell me how to build a Supercharged 1600 Xflow What kind of blower did you use?
  10. Oh wait yeah i'im wrong i thought you were putting a 1300 head onto a 1600... But yeah if you were using a 160 head on a 1300 block you would get the bigger valves..
  11. I'm not sure about fiestas but co uld they possibly have chambered heads? because that would not work in an Xflow as the heads are flat and most of the 1600 heads have bigger valves than all of the ones from smaller capacity engines.

    down vs side draughts

    What kind of alfa do you have? My dad is into his alfas and is always telling me how great twin downdraught dellortos look and sound on those boxere engines

    down vs side draughts

    two 40mm DCOEs are going to be alot better than one Downdraught... and the fact that the air/fuel mixture travels in a straight line directly into the head allows better airflow...
  14. 3k not much fo an engine.. especially if you are payingsoemone to buldit
  15. Should be ok, pushrod will definantly know... or look on trademe i think there is an anglia with a prexflow with sideys.. diff enginge but much the same so you will be able to see the proportions.. otherwise id be keen to buy the engine or carbs

    Valve

    Def, should go to the place where i got my head done... he's very good and the guy he gets to do his cams are franklin camshaft services which i have been told by other sources that they are probably the best around. AJ Automotive 115 Wairau Road

    Valve

    Hey RT you know this is a Isuzu G200 not a pinto! aye?
  18. Its not that easy to put a pinto in... its a bit of messing about... driveshaft.. sump.. throttle cable.. exhaust... fuel line.! not to mentoin cost od cert......
  19. Jerm

    worked 1300-1600?

    Mate..... this is just getting rediculous...

    Valve

    Which one are you going to use? get it bead blasted and crack tested...
  21. No!!!! You have got the wrong radiator cap in i think... cos it has that spring loaded bit on it and if it isn't the right one it doesn't match up with the bit in the neck of the radiotor fitting... so when it gets a bit of pressure it just lets it out...into the over flow.... i think..
  22. it would just snap the bracket then... you might h ave to fabricate a big thick ass bracket... that will accoomodate big as bolts
  23. ESCORT POWER You can have it for $50 if you take the whole car. and no you can't just dump it on the street.. the rego will be changed to your name
  24. What do you reckon a 3.54 diff is worth? What would i want to use with a mildly modified pinto and a sierra 5 speed? apparently it has a 4.4 in it but it is locked and i would like to use it on the road?... just a normal 4.4 ? does that sound ok?
