Title: Hop Up! Post by: navy_speed_shop on February 19, 2005, 12:29:27 AM hows it goin fellas
been collecting and scrounging now for a little while and finally have enough pennys to get my donk back on line. So far ive stiripped down the old girl and sourced a Waggott Twin carby manifold and some HQ carbies. instead of using the the dodgey speco linkages, ive used kick downs on the throttle shafts, makes things a bit tighter and not so sketchy looking. ive got to pick up a finned aluminium rocker cover from somewhere, had one, lost one kinda deal. Now any suggestions on head work? i want to chuck this into a fe/fc ute when i get a bit more bling bling. figure that the power to weight ratio will be a bit more friendly. so the head dosent have to be too crazy, i was thinking bigger valves new springs etc. but the big question what valves? thats all for now though. should get some replies. Cheers fellas!!! Title: Re: Hop Up! Post by: Fast_Eddie on February 19, 2005, 07:09:37 AM Grey motor?
Mine was rebuilt with 186 valves I think, with some mild head work. Speak to Mike Dyer at Brookvale. Old school engine builder, knows greys back to front. |
