mani looks nyc i was meaning bhp soz

no idea mate, iv only done 200 miles in her so far
but it feels very toruqy compared to my old engine and that was very good on toruqe as i had jdm pistons in it plus the 4-2-1 ex mani helps
i put it down to the 12-1 comp ratio and its 1352 cc now so i guess you could class it as a 1.4!
once shes nice and loose i will be fitting my tighe 952 cams, and put a proper clutch plate on then it should be putting out a healthy figure, maybe 135ish, could be more could be less, cross that bridge when i come to it

she made 129hp and 110lbft atf on the rollers recently
ran my old engine on the same rollers in the same condtions last year and that had 116hp and 100 atf
all that different is .5 more comp ratio, jdm intake, .5 larger ex valves and its basicly new

gary

Nice looks amazing hope its a b16 killer !

Hi Gary,

Is that with 952 cams?
Is your cylinder head std apart from bigger exhaust valves?

Cheers
Atchi

no mate suposed to be cultus cams but when i messured them they had the same lift as std so i got most of the money back
if my scanner was working i would put the power graph up, but the peak power is flat from 7100-7300 which is about right for cultus cams, but last year with the same cams same rollers same cwp, peak was at 6800
toruqe curve is realy flat aswell, 90 ftlbs from 1800 peaking @ 110 about 5000
im gona wait and save up for a proper ecu before fitting the 952`s

head wise i did a diy polish on the ex side only, .5 o/s stainless ex valves, brand new valve guides (that wasnt cheap!!) and seals, cleaned up the lifters aswell, i did take a set apart but they are noisyer than before so i just soaked this set in thinners overnight cleaned them off and refilled them with oil and left them in a oil bath for a few days
