You will need valve cut-outs in yours pistons for 14's or 16's

Do a search for cams as there was a big discussion about this the other week

i'd go one stage further for a NMS T4 conversion. But than im just waiting to buy a run about than it will happen. My engines just been rebuilt to std comp. New pistons, head totally redone, valves guides, etc. Even got a new turbo. Wish i did'nt though as i did'nt need it. I could of saved the money and gone for a T4. Wish i had now
