All beautiful work, It,s geat to see some one go the extra mile (we all know how long that mile is too) to make a system like that. I love the sound of a 90 degree exhaust system on a V8, the V12 is just to easy to do (just jealous) I did my best to do a 90 degree system on my twin turbo V8...

Or you could do both.;)

Yes Ed I'm sure. Its about 1000rpm short of its limit at 10,000rpm, but I'm limited in boost with the transmission I'm running. No fixed cam will be spot on over 8000rpm, that's just one of an endless list of compromises we have to make in the auto world, but a supercharged V8 at even 70% VE...

We are just throwing some ideas around; no one said it was a great idea for the masses. Personally I’m looking at it for the engine in my hillclimb car. The original 4lt with do a good job, but in hillclimb its about corner to corner speed and every gear change is a big percentage of time lost...

Yes Ed, all good questions, none of which i have a exact answer for. Its about 1.6mm per side give or take for the offset. But as we are looking at offset grinding the journal 7mm perhaps we could widen the journal a little to easy the amount off the rod width. We would have to get hold of a rod...

As far as I know they don't have offset, but their big end width is 1.032" or 26.21mm which is about 3.25mm wider (from memory, which likes playing tricks on me) than stock 1uz-fe rods. So while machining them down you can get the 0.96mm offset of the stock rod. Steven

You can use 4G63 Mitsubishi rods, from the late model engine used in the EVO with 7 bolt flywheel. It has the same pin size and the big end is small enough to drop the stroke by 7mm to 75mm, the rod is 4mm longer so the piston will only 0.5mm higher with standard piston compression heights. The...

Thanks, I will wait, I've been married 26 years, patience is compulsory. But even at 0.200" (5.08mm) it still gives quite a range to work with. Has anyone found a inlet valve that works with 1NZ buckets and standard base circle cams, maybe eg Ford Focus 2.0L inlets at 97.55 in length...

Hi John Any update on the spring seat cutting, it would be reinsuring to know how much metal is below the spring seat. Thanks Steven
