Hej All,

I'm in the progress of converting my 2.0 ZVH into Zetec Turbo at the moment.
Found me a nice silvertophead i'll be using.
Planning on just using the standard head and cams with a rev limit of about 6600-6800.

Will i be needing some uprated springs in the head or will the standard be fine for me?


Thanks

FULLBORE

you need uprated ones. Im not sure if people use focus rs items........

Gregor

Ok, Thanks

Anyone knows which ones to use the and where to get hold of them?

i think,not sure,but the springs will only take about 10psi?cams will do the trick,i just got a set of focus RS cams for mine,supposed to be better

Gregor

10 psi ? I was more thinking of doing about 22 psi at least.
But wich ones will be better?
And will the standard cams be any good or are they kind of shit in a turbo engine?
Heard of a some ZT here running standard cams and not doing to bad.

Standard cams are fine... The piper single uprated springs are good to about 300hp.. after that you will want a double spring conversion.

Gregor

Thanks,

Don't think i'll be getting much above 300 on standard head/cam so think i'll go for the singles.

Gregor

Anyone know where to get them for a good price?

theres a set on the bay 80 quid buy it now

Gregor

Thanks, had a look at it.

you mean the aeria six ones?
They can withstand 20 psi, is this the max single springs can do on a zetec turbo or can piper or another brand of songles do more?

Gregor

Never mind... he won't send it to Holland..

Gregor

As the standard cams will work fine i'm just after some HD springs so was wondering what boost pressure pipers would take....

Gregor

Ok, ordered some valve springs from Ian @ area-six.
Should be here tomorrow so the building can begin
