Re: 20v exhaust cam on a 16v small port head

268 is a bit lopey for a stock engine.... it will likely lower dynamic compression as well... if you do nothing to bump static compression.

Orange Rocket is selling a brand new pair of Crower cams for $450... that is pretty cheap.... albeit they are more duration.

Re: Are there rare 1986 corolla Gt-s?

Hi I bought a 1986 toyota corolla GT-S. It came with power windows and power sunroof but no power steering. Also is black an original color for these cars? I saw on my fuel cap door a few red paint showing after paint chips. The engine bay is black. I wonder if the previous owners bought a replacem...

Re: Best engine for daily driving and drifting with power.

A well built 16V with decent headwork can make VERY good power....... To keep it all simple..... run factory ecu and wiring..... 7 rib block(with proper attention to deck height), 3 rib crank and rods. Have the rods modified to accept the larger 20mm pins - press fit. Have the crank and rods prepped...

Re: Jeff's winter 2012 20v engine build

Tony.... do some research into "pressure recovery". The silvertop combustion chamber (or a welded, and ported blacktop chamber) is more conducive to "pressure recovery" then an unmodified blacktop chamber...... http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/544680_390016947708044_113...

Re: Quick question about 8.9:1 4A-GZE pistons

One additional question, I was reading up on the piston differences and it seems these 8.9:1 GZE pistons are forged instead of cast. Does this mean the block bores should have some extra clearance to allow for piston expansion? Or don't I have to worry about this? I can only hope that I will find a...

Because casting imperfections are removed, not only are power gains likely, but more even airflow promotes even combustion, which promotes cleaner emissions.
