Booked 2 days off of work to try and get a few bits done, i had to take 2 bags of bolts to platers and poped to the powder coaters to see what colours they have for my inlet manifolds.
Tryed fitting the 182 manifold before i heat wrap it but the flange on the end hits the hoop of the anti roll...
Right so i called Roland Alsop 2 weeks ago to order a set of Supertech valves.
They told me that they have 15 sets on order and are waiting on them from the USA, should be in 2 weeks time.
Today i called them and still nothing and they also couldn't give me a date.
My problem is that my heads...
I don't know weather to change them or not Tom.
There was i thinking my head was mint only to find out that it needs 16 valve guides. :dapprove:
Ill give Adam a call and get a price.
Couple of these should do the trick?

Chip, how do i run my cams in? :o
Hi all,
Im after buying some cam lube for when i fit my 421's, whats the best stuff to get?
Ill also be using it for fitted new big end bearings.
Ta.
Would this be ok...
As already been said, if you can afford it then keep it. Maybe use it for the odd trackday or use it on sunny Sunday's for a little blast out.
Take it to your local meets etc, if you was to sell then you would only see around 2 - 2.5k.
Cheers mate, hope so.
With the head being done im hoping for more torque, PH1 Tom has the same spec but his got the Piper cams and a sports cat.
His car made 185 bhp and 175 lbs ft at RS Tuning.
Oh im also fitting ARP rod bolts so it can rev a little more.
Andrews cracking on with the head but im still waiting for the valves to come into the country, fingers crossed sometime next week.
Once its back to me i can make a start on getting it all fitted back, engine bits should be back from the powder coaters at the end of next week and i'm dropping...
Great news mate.
Im off tomo and friday so ill get to the bank in the morning and ill give Roland Alsops a call to see how we are doing on the valves. :)
Im started to get excited now, looking forward to the porting progress. :D
