Have an experimental engine going on here. 7AGE any suggestions? going to use stock internals, so no massive increases. Started project before I became unemployed so now I just want to get my mind back into it. Work is supposed to start soon, so money should be available. First thing I have in the build is the rods. I plan to use the stock rods to see if they are typical Toyota fare, tougher than they look. The rods have been honed to float the 20mm pins, NO bushings installed. This is only to find out how this mod can even be suggested from an engine builder. I outlined the oiling mods I intend to do in the "Engine Theory" thread. Bored .020" over. Planned compression is in the 10-1 range. Looking take advantage of the stroke and target torque. Best head for this app. should be the small port version. To try and make up for the added displacement the cams aill be stock Blue top(early) to @ 256 degree duration. I want the highest lift possible with the stock buckets and shims. If at all possible, I would like to increase the size of the valves, 2mm intake, 1mm exhaust. AFM injection type should be adequate for this set-up.
Any thoughts on this would be welcome for consideration and, or discussion.
