so i have a dumb question.. i have my engine torn down to the heads and case and was my cylinders (i think) are kinda rusty (the little fins on it)
if i wanted to get a new cylinder/piston kit yada yada... can i get a "big bore" 96mm kit? I didn't know if going with the big kit would require any modifying of the heads or case or something.. or if it would "bolt up" just like the stock parts. pardon the noobness (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Enjoy the book, I really learned a lot from it, and the video let's you see the steps actually being done, it's like having a teacher in the garage with you. I know that sounds cheesy, but it's really helpful! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) If you haven't done so already, go to Jake's website (aircooledtechnology.com) and register in the forums. Once you've done that, you can link up to a valvetrain Powerpoint document that Jake generated to explain his cam program. He developed the cam program to avoid people mixing and matching various components with his cams, only to have poor results. |
