nastyrash 2003 Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 are thm 3 angled valve seats i can see fella, uuummmmmm. i am getting the tools to do these soon. did you gride down the inlet valve guid boss to sit flush with the port. just a little note, wen looking at the combustion chamber can u see wer the milling tool cuts the valve seat, this can be removed along with the back side of the exahust valve helps spool up and volumetric efficent of the cylinder by quite a bit if u look at the pic of your exhaust valve open u can see how it only flow around 60% of its circumfrence. also wat port velocities did u manage on the flow bench i have found that around 70m/s (260ft/sec) gives great max hp, and around 50-60m/s (165ft/sec) for peak torque. but these are just calculation as paul sold his engine before we could do a dyno run. gutted.

shorty Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 looks clean, standard valves or oversized dude? Quote

I believe me in my opinion... you have to bodge 98's to gettem to fit... the mounting locations are completely different got the 96's in the bumper tho, nice snug fit, perfect and secure and looks mint Quote
ollie ryan Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 96spec fogs let it down abit, but this is an epic build Quote
Socks Posted March 21, 2011 Author Posted March 21, 2011 96spec fogs let it down abit, but this is an epic buildif u can find me a genuine 98spec varis front bumper.... please let me know Quote
Dan507 Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 The 96 spec fogs are fine, you should get some yellow flim and wrap them Quote
LukeSR Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 The 96 spec fogs are fine, you should get some yellow flim and wrap them ;)This, pweaseeeeeeeeeee do eeeeeeeeeeet! Quote
Liam_D Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Dont think yellow fogs would work on this project if im being honest!! Quote
Sparky Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Yea I know socks wont be doing it, dont think it would look right on this anyway Quote
Amjad Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Snap..No point buying new fogs and then wrapping them yellow, if you were gonna do that you may as well wrap manky ones lol Quote
