low comp/steel rods
hi all
rebuilding an engine to go in my rs when done
spec will be running mfi for now
standard crank
low comp pec pistons 7.5.1 (81mm)
farndan rods
hd bearings around the crank/rods
hp oil pump
t3 stage 2
superchip
ford head gasket
arp bolts all round
what i need to know is i have 2 heads
1st one is a standard head with just porting/polishing work on inlet and standard cam
the other a stage 2 head from burtons with kent/piper high boost cam (cam not bought yet)
what boost can i run on these head options that give a good delivery of power with the right cam, i am not looking for a engine that hits its max power nearly flat out coz lets face it the speed limit is 70 on motorway
i do have plans next year to run a different engine management but will stick with mfi for the time being and if a bigger turbo is needed so be it but i am looking to run 190/200 at the wheels with my uprated box from cts ect ect
so i am hoping there is a couple of people out there running a similar spec engine in its above combinations that can give me some info on performance or point me in the right direction
i know a zvh is going tobe cheaper but i want all cvh and i have pistons/ rods block ect ect just needs putting together
any info would be grateful
