Got the time today to rough out the carb flange for the intake. http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk136/nismoxero/nismo/ManifoldInProg13_zps2tzo0v8y.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk136/nismoxero/nismo/ManifoldInProg14_zpsgkzxvhj3.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk136/nismoxero/nismo...

Thanks :) Im pretty happy with everything so far. Had a bit of trouble with the dizzy having old springs allowing it advance too soon making it ping a bit but got that sorted out its tuning in real nice and sounding pretty good.

Audio is a bit tinny. http://youtu.be/5ADCvQavvBs

I got some more time to work on it and some of the exhaust bends that I needed. Made the exhaust flange plate and port matched the head to it. http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk136/nismoxero/nismo/ExhaustMisc1_zps57cf8c30.jpg http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk136/nismoxero/nismo/ExhaustPlate1_...

Wow, been a while since I was on here. Work, family and other projects stole me away from my Nissan motor. I had another kid. A boy. So been busy with him. I have an old VW Dune bug I'm working on, a 69 GMC pickup I'm working on and getting ready to start fixing up a Fiberfab Banshee/Carribee too. I...

Actually when grinding your own cam you can have as much overlap as you want. The only limit on it is that the valves will only open 1.5mm during overlap (assuming you ground the cam down .5mm) until the rocker gets back on to the old surface. The small ends of the rods were within 1.75 grams of eac...

Overlap, as in the exhaust and intake valves being open at the same time for a short time at the end of exhaust, beginning of intake so the exhaust out flow helps to draw the air in the intake a little quicker at the start. Makes like a siphon effect. Haven't got much done last week or so. been too ...

Well here it is. It could use a little more smoothing out, ease the transition from old shape to new but the bulk of it is done. Ground it on my shop smith using some bearings to ride i on. It now has .260 lobe lift on both intake and exhaust which translates to about .390 valve lift if the rocker r...

Checked the 2 cams I have handy to see which I would use and I find out they are not the same. One has lobes that are approx .222 Intake and .226 Exhaust and the other has .226 Intake and .231 Exhaust. That is cam lobe lift, not valve lift. Anyone know what the rocker ratio is for the E15-E16? Proba...

I figured as much, just everything I had read was saying it HAD to be peened or the sun and moon would collide and catastrophe would ensue ;) If it was super important then I would only balance them, but being as it is not I will go ahead and lighten them a bit as well. My first version of a crank b...
