You will need valve cut outs in the pistons so its got to come apart surely???

he's already rung me prior to this post
this is purely steve seeking some love and attention as he gets none from his wife
BD15 is one of my favourite cams we used it extensively in our 1980's touring car engines along with a bd14 exhaust cam with very specific secret squirrel cam timing figures
fast road engines we used different exhaust cams
The infamous dessert storm of that era ran the 15 14 combination
from the early 1990's we used modified bd15's as well as 16's
the most commonly used cams for fast road engines by us were those very trick expensive std ones that came free with the car

not with those pistons
as I said to you on the phone we need to increase valve lift which isn't possible with your home spec engine
this is the reason we suggested the ab07 in the first place

What was the special BD15 you used then ?
Did it have more lift ?
As said on the phone i don't want to loose the bottom end.

Are you referring to the cost of an engine build or the cost of his pending divorce

look on the bright side steve when your kids get a bit older she will probably get herself a job and spend all her income on herself .Even more things from littlewoods but still none for your car
Don't worry steve she'll still be spending your money as well
