neither of them are very wild, but the schrick cam seems to be just that tiny bit better, but i cant read the italian site so i was doing my best to guess at which column meant what.
Im well into my old MK1s.........love them, what golf u got.
Anyway, what would i do if a 172 is out of the question.......i sure as hell wouldnt fiddle with a 1.2 or 1.6. I would either wait, or sell up and get a car with a decent engine to tune.
There are many better 1.6 engines out...
im in bristol now fool! lol
classic car track day this sat at combe which ill be at.......
nice, new valves and tappets.....as they cost a fortune!
maybe you can help fix my arches!
Edde, @11,000rpm it would be making closer to 240bhp, but teh std crank wont be able to go anywhere near that, yet alone the rods and pistons. The head wont flow enough, the cams wont work up there, the valve train wont stand it.
I wouldnt drive about like normal, itll be a dog below 5-6K...
Im very friendly, i just dont go easy when people make mistakes....i pounce. As for jsut using alrger injectors.......no. Fuel capacity and management is totally diff.
The only problem with his plan is the cost and the continued cost.
oil is oil in essence, wont really matter what you use.
But some oil is better than others, but they all have grades to meet, so you cant really buy a crap oil.
Do we always have to spend all day answering the same questions?
I mean, people ask and ask and ask, but who ever does it!?
All engines work the same way, all respond the same way to the same modifications. How well depends on the design of the engine.
How much faster......not...
its quicker, but then we get people with STs comming on jibbering, arguements are fun, but not when there is an answer and its been done one billions times.
PLUS!!! theres no tech to spam about.
WHO CARES!
this in gonna turn into one of those boring topics where people argue over something that already has an answer then 18 pages later they agree to disagree or its locked....
Yawn.......
TRAX?
you mean the day they fill a race track with junk?
nah, you know i dont go to shows, spesh ones..........oh i wont bother, ill just upset people.
At combe this sat.........classic and sports car day.......giving lessons to Joe in his superb MGB GT.
