Wow! They really did bend their backs for me.. Wow. I know they are going to get alot of advertising from me, no questions about it.
I don't know anything about the collector, but you sure do. Thanks for the information!
quote: $700 just for the collector wow
did you say you blueprinted the oil sys (enlarged the oil passages)
700$ that's crazy!
Well, any corner that was not rounded and smoothed, and even not matching the gasket or the other side of the port, was ground out all the way possible and smoothened round to encourage free flowing everything. The oil routes I ground and made 3 holes larger and rounded 2 corners to meet the gaskets/ports. Just simple things that go along way and make a huge difference years down the road. I also added spacers to up the pressure needed to activate the blow by spring, which in tern ups the pressure. I fixed a couple of corners that were restrictive where water passes also.
I later learned from Stephen Gunter that the water lines on the exhaust side can be drilled out larger to encourage water passage over the exhaust ports. To bad I already had the head on. Well, my next head will for surely get that done to it.
In other words, I spent a ____ load of time doing little silly things.
Regards,
BigMike
