thanks pete
once again you've been a great help, I'll do the cam
tomorrow.
As for the head, I'm still confused.
I got 2 replies telling me not to use the L18 head as it'll
reduce compression too much, Then your reply tells me to use it.
I might just ask this guy how much he wants for the whole
engine. Is the much of a power gain going from an L16 to an
L18?
David Use L18 head as its a better head. the reason
you use no 3 cam gear hole is to take up any slack in timing chain they are
set at #2 at factory or when you putin new chain, try advancing your timing do
it a bit at a time 5 degrees or less each time you'll know when youre gone too
far as engine will ping this will help take offs.BTW dont use L18 carby as
this will screw your consumption

Peter, I've got an "A" cam and
about to put it in my L16 to give it a little bit more bite. I've allready
got a 5 speed box and a 4:3:1 diff, can you recomend anything else I should
whack on at the same time to give it some more go? Only reason I'm asking
you all this is because a while ago you told me if I was to stick an "A" cam
into my L16 I should set it at hole #3 when putting it back in. I was
just wondering if you could explain in a little more detail what you mean by
"set it at hole #3". I didn't bother asking what you meant back when you
actually wrote it because I assumed my mate who's helping out would know
what you meant, but I asked him today and he said he had no idea he just
whacks them in. Also the guy who I bought
the cam off said I can have the L18 head that it came off for an extra $10
and I'm wondering whether the L18 head on the L16 block would be quicker
cause the head flows more or will this just make compression too
low? It's not going to see any track work, it's
only for road use, So I'm just after down low grunt for quick take offs not
top end speed for racing. What are your sugestions for
this? PS. I'm not gunna spend big bucks on
it. Big bucks on an L16 would be a waste of time. I've saved just over half
the money I need to get my SR20DET conversion done and I'm starting to crave
the power hehe so I wanna give it a bit more bang in the
meantime thanx a lot
