I popped the heads off in order to remove the broken exhaust studs (one per cylinder)
(I wrote broken head studs....I meant exhaust studs) Stock camshaft has some strange wear patterns on it which might be part of the previous owner problems with the motor. Cam will be a 9600 grind from Rabys old store Intake planned is stock L-Jet, however I can be swayed to install Megasquirt (plenum or ITB) since I already have the Megasquirt. Exhaust is older European Racing Header. |

Jake doesn't sell parts anymore, only turnkey engines. The Type IV store is now owned by LN Engineering.

Jake doesn't sell parts anymore, only turnkey engines. The Type IV store is now owned by LN Engineering. I'd think he'd still have the specs to the older stuff he sold. Cam is not listed on Store website. I could call them tomorrow, might be something not usually offered. |
