Is that the head you had off me a while back?

Should rev with the porting and ti valve springs and retainers.  :cool:
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Sure is dude. Got it built and 100 miles down the road 3 of the springs let go. To cut a long story short, after lots of calls to JNL and emails to techtonics and autotec in America I bought a new set of HD springs from autotec after about 2 months.

It now revs to around 8k with the new springs. Flows nicely, and I've port matched the inlet too. It gos pretty well.

 :shocked:  WTF!

Feel free to fill me in by PM on the background to that, as I'd just collected it from him and done nothing to it since.

Wow thats a great project. Has a real tone similar to my r1 engined kit car.

Im intrigued what you have fitted and what it came off if you have time to explain.

Well done that man, I've been trying to think of something unusual to do with my 8v or replace it with. I'd love more details if you could get the build thread up

Good news folks. I've typed the build thread up and uploaded my photos, I just need half hour to insert them all and then it'll be done. I'll post a link in here when it's done.

All those people asking about PMs, I will talk to you all this week. Been really busy at work doing well over 100 hrs.
