AdamB Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Welcome along You would need valve springs and to probably rev to 8200rpm. Stock retainers are ok unless you go for reground cams where the angle has changed.A port and polish is a must to get 400bhp, 300bhp can be achieved on a stock head, although there would be no harm in doing a 3 angle cut on the valve seats.I also doubt that turbo will be able to push 400bhp, around 370bhp on that turbo is the max you'll probably make before it starts heating up the air. You will have to change to the next trim size which would be the 2876, but this would become pretty unbalanced in terms of power-spool ratio. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

turbo Grant Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 The retainers should be ok for that rpm. Not some thing many people change. Sumo power make light weight titanium ones tho. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shorty Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 You shouldnt realy need to do anythingbto them tbh. Can always talk to zisco another trader here they buil crazy hp drag sleds so they will shine more light on head specs if you need it. Im aiming at 300-350hp with oem retainers with cruise valve springs and will be uping the rpm to 8500 maybe more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe I could find something locally.Will the lifter be okay aswel? Edited December 24, 2012 by ash.ds Quote Link to post Share on other sites
killamats Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Billet cams are a must for your bhp needs, and I suggest billet cams are the way forward.According to the specs on the cams you get, then you will require valve springs that do not mind under full load while still giving you correct base pressure. We have a kit consisting of valve springs and retainers for high duration cams, in most cases there is no requirement to machine under the valve springs but in others where duration is high, you will have to, unless obviously go install a bigger valve with a longer stem. Valves are a great upgrade, but a big outlay to buy and install for marginal increase. If you are interested to discuss your intentions, drop me a PM.Lastly, the GT28 journal bearing turbo is not the best turbo for your application unless you have some .82AR to increase hp but then increase lag considerably.Keith Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shorty Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I dont im afraid dude, i know zisco ones where developed from cruise iirc. You still find cruise for sale now and then but they are crazy priced tbh. Tmd used to stock em so some one will have em on the shelf somewhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They'll allow you to run beyond the stock rev limit, but as your running them what else would you need to know? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
