Phil Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I would go : free breathing rocker setupcomplete engine gasket kitport and polished head, (by a pro) (valve guide seat reprofiled etc etc mostly on exhaust side)supertech oversized valvesBillet cams 265degree 9mm lifttitanium retainersstock valve springs(new)valves lapped in nicely.chemically cleanedhead skimmed 1mm ish steel headgasket (athena/toyota/ECC) straight block (not decked)74.5mm CP pistons/JE pistons/Wiesco Pistons (fullyfloating pins)Scat rods (dont see any need to pay for carrillo or pauter as the scats are proven in high rev 4e/5e applications.ACL bearingsBillet end caps if you can have some made (check with malteasers)polished crank, knife-edged and balancedbaffled sumpBlitz Active or ORC triple plate clutch and lightened flywheel. everyone will have differing opinions depend on whether its a road/hillclimb/track/drag setup.

Turbo Goose Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I'm ordering scat rods with wiseco pistons from a guy in america. Around £600 for pistons and rods delivered. Import tax is a thing to worry about but matey said hes happy to reduce value on import docs so win win. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Etccc.....Thanks a lot for all Ya timeross pistons/pauter rods (best and cheapest place to buy from us speedvisioncps.com) act clutches are decent bang for the buck (speedvisioncps.com has them too). you can try spec clutches too. leave the head alone. stock head can flow decent power. certainly ample for 90% of EP owners. p&p/cams/inlet manifolds all will shift around your power band and if you dont handle it systematically, it wont work well for you. 1.2mm athena head gasket and arp head bolts are sufficient. later if you are going for big power..400+ ...then look into a well spec'd head...
