Without going into too much detail, my cambelt went yesterday leaving me with some bent valves.

I was planning a stage 2 or 3 anyway and seeing as the head is off was wondering wether to bother getting it ported or not.

Also need to know which head gasket is best for this power level.

Cheers

wouldnt bother doing anything with the head, unless you want the expense of a custom remap after

as for head gasket i would use the late escort cosworth one
