IX FP RED FP5R "buit" motor build
Thanks guys. I have been really busy with other cars, and we are changing some things this week. We are trying pretty hard to get it to the shootout. Regardless we will be in nowrwalk possibly thursday thru sunday. I have a lot of PMs with questions about various aspects. If anybod wants to meet up at the REAL shootout, even just to hang out PM and ill give you my number to text me..
Jimib -- If you had to do it all over, would you stick with the stock sized valves ? I have heard that one can get better power with the stock valves and nicely ported head. (BTW, your work looks awesome, congrats.)
Actually I am doing another one right now and I am staying stock sized valves. My reasoning is not all to do with performance. It creates a lot of work compared to any possible gains. Not only does it create a lot more work, when I did the chambers, I knocked a little more compression out of it to unshroud the valves than I liked. No big deal really, just personal preference. I definitely don't have a problem with stock sized valves.
