rite, the non-starting saga continues. a quick recap on the situation; had to take the engine out of the 16v for the third time 2 weeks ago, to sort a powersteerign leak. got that fixed, but as soon as engine was put back in it wudnt crank over. originally wen i connected up the battery, the...

jsut looked thru the engine pics. is the f4r engine an ally block or cast iron, like the original f7 engines? is it using wet liners? also ive noticed that the inlet an exhasut valves look identical to the f7p valves(inlet 30mm and exhaust 28mm). ive got sum pics of the gasflowed ports if ur...

anybody now the score with these? like how much and wat sort of compression ratio they achieve jimbo

i no decat pipes can come in silencer type boxes, so is it possible to gut a standard cat. pull out the mesh interior, leaving a hollow chamber?? jimbo p.s. as u can see, im a stingy bugger, so if i can buy a nakered cat from a breakers, and create a decat pipe on the cheap, them im up for...

i hooked up my cold start injector to an interior flick switch today. at anything below 2k revs at part throttle it stalls the engine, but once past that and got plenty of air, it pulls better. keeps reving all the way to the limiter. keeps powering all the way. worthwhile mod i think for the...

okay, rite my 19 16v is working like a charm right now. the gasflowed head goes nice. i can buy some piper fast road cams for 145quid, but before i spend my hard earned, i wanna know, is it really worth the money. can you actually feel the performance when compared to before. does the power kick...

if anyones interested, the 19 16vs and clio 16vs(i think??) came with two types of fuel injector-bosch greens and bosch yellows. the yellow injectors flow more fuel, thereofre if uv got nitrous, or serious breathing, then the yellows are the way to go. jimbo

just noticed that u had ur valver moddified by hp. wats the power delivery like now after the head work? any loss of power low down from the cams? where does the power kick in now? it was piper cams that wer used rite? im gettin a gaslflowed head in the enxt week or two, and i am still...

go down to ur local breakers, and find a 1.9 clio or 19 diesel engine. hand over a few notes, then take it home. the bit ur after is the crank, bin the rest. then pull out the 1.8 crankshaft from ur 16v, stick in the diesel crankshaft, and voila, uv no got a clio williams engine-well of sorts...

i think ive found out what the durations and valve lifts are for the standard 16v camshafts. these are group N specs, but from what i can gather, group N is the same spec as production components, just to a higher tolerance. these are from piper; duration= 260degrees valve lift=...
