Default Excited, progress with new engine


Just thought I'd let you in on what I'm doing.

79x90.5mm
310deg custom made cam, 10.8mm lift (11.9mm at valve)
1.1:1 rockers for now, will probably try 1.25's later
2x45 Dells
009 (yea yea I know, I cheaped out. Needs Pertronix still.)
Crane HI-6 CDI spark and rev limiter (set at 7500rpm)
40x35.5 Empi heads with long plug threads, Stainless valves
pro porting and competition valve job, chamber work by yours truly
10.6:1 Compression ratio, 1,2mm deck height
Welded fan (stock pulley ratio)
Full Flow (just filter, no external cooler yet)
Narrowed late model doghouse with room for T4 oil cooler
Merged header

Still some open issues, but I think I'm getting there...

Today I finished timing my cam, and welded the fan blades, narrowed the
shroud and painted it,
finished painting cylinder tin, and other odd bits and pieces. Starting
to look like an engine almost.

No. I'm from Portugal. Finland and Portugal are in Europe as you know, but very
far way. If not, I had already sent my engine to Jan for an upgrade :-)

Since when? Did we invade Portugal?

I really should pay attention to those local news more.

LOL. Don't even try to do that. The Spanish tried that a lot of times and didn’t
succeed. If you want to buy Portugal, then it will be a different issue.
