Can't really tell from the pic but did you smooth the inlets to a mirror finish cos i heard you should keep them abit rough to stop the fuel condensing in them.I thought inlets should be left slightly rough and exhausts should be polished to a mirror finish. I might be wrong and if i am im sure someone will put me straight  Looking good tho mate wish i could afford some TB's i think they look and sound the dogs watsits! ________________________________________ Peugeot 306 GTi 6BMW 320 td compact M-sport 1967 Mini Cooper 1990 Jaguar XJR 4.0 |

Maybe on the exshaust, but for the inlets it needs to be matt as it causes turbulance in the air |

Would be a shame not to match the ports as you have the head off. Offer up a gasket and secure it with a couple of bolts. Then scibe around the port, then remove the gasket and take away the excess material with a die grinder/dremmel to the scribed line and you will have done a perfect job of matching the head to the manifold. (This wants to be done on the inlet and the exhaust)  ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies. I sell new and used welding equipment in the Hampshire area.

This helps mix the inlet charge and atomise the fuel properly. It needs to be well mixed otherwise you get lean/rich pockets in the intake charge rather than a uniform mix of air and fuel. This can cause localised det and generally a poor burn. The exhausts should be smooth to promote laminar air-flow ________________________________________ Contact Details:rich@lynxpowerengineering.co.uk 07732 822546 |
