going to go greys/t34 etc and if i buy a 1.44mm thick cometic wrc head gasket i'll be low comp, and was thinkin about changin my cams or just the inlet, is this a good idea ?

what would the right cam be for my engine, some say the bd14 some say leave the standard cams in, i'm confused as fuk as to what to put in, also if the 14 one is the one to go for , is the best thing to do send them to someone like amber for an exchange pair or is there someone else on here who does them?

 

get someone to check the spec of your motor like MSD(from your sig) and tell you which is best cos tbh at that level its not really a off the shelf game anymore.

 

Fen i thinks shes gona blow ,,,,o sorry it allready has

 

shouldnt you be mason

 

I went through this with Karl and he can use his own NMS cams to unleash a few more ponys

 

how much are those tif?

 

Not too sure mate, better off having a word with Karlos

 

Fen you could put a couple of broom shnks in there and get more power than you have now

 

To maintain decent torque, keep a std exhaust cam though.

 

Need more info on your individual requirements to ascertain the correct cams to use Karl. Also dont forget that most of the popular cams require piston modifications and some require stronger valve springs and platform mods... Feel free to call me if you need to.

 

cheers stu, you would be doin it anyways, i've asked about the 1.42 cometic gaskets which claim to lower comp, you got any opinions on these???

 

cometic are SHYYYYYYYYYTE with head gaskets,
1st blow out i put down to bad head, 2nd one fooked block and differnt head.
2nd time was the above mentioned gasket
might be a bad batch( ? ) but i certainly wouldnt use another one again as it cost me a LOT of money and even more in time, especially to prep the heads....... as you know i was really really gutted.

stick with gpA, for the money it costs/power output theres no point buying a reuseable gasket (Mountune ONLY! ) unless head is off a lot of reliability is a major factor and cost isnt.

Have a think about your motor, try not to listen to all the things everyone says as advice as it oftern makes things dificult to choose.
Try to have phone conversations with reputable tuners and tell them your requirements, they will give best advice possible and 99% of the time its free!!!!

Everyone knows how to get big horsepower cossie motors nowdays, but not everyone knows how to build GOOD cossie motors with reliability!
Head gaskets are a major factor in a cossie motor, dont believe everything you hear about most expensive bits being the best.... its all dependant on the application


Sean.

 

sean, sometimes you sound like ya know what your talkin aboot

 

i know, unfortunatley sometimes i do cos of my own experiances! Mainly bad ones

 

shaun NO headgasket IS REUSABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cowboy

 

gus, they are advertised as reuseable by pj etc so what do they mean by it if its not reusable???thats the impression i get, that you can use em more than once

 

no SO NOT EVER REUSE A HEADGASKET!!!!!!!!!!!

 

so general opinion is dont use cometic! and theres no such thing as a reusable h.gasket

 

GRP A ALL THE WAY
