For sale is a rebuilt 1600. Engine was built by me during COVID as a project for a car i no longer need. I am a hobbyist not an engine builder. That is why I am selling for 1/2 of the parts cost. Engine ran on a test stand for 30 min with good oil pressure and no leaks. Head was built buy a well known engine builder.
Head build notes:
The valves used are 1mm oversize stainless alloy valves. But I reduced the head diameter .5mm and as well rounded the margins of the valves to improve flow. So they are effectively .5mm oversize.
A summary of the components in the head is: Ports opened and wider at the top, Seats opened with a 75 degree cutter, and finished with a 45 degree seat,Valves un-shrouded, short guides, green Viton seals, Isky 455-626 springs and RjR429 intake cam with an RjR1195 exh cam.
This is a full race head build, other than the cam design which is a high torque pairing. (However these came cams will make lots more HP than old race cams and have gobs of torque at low rpms as well as a smooth stable idle.)
I have marked the cam caps for the best LCs if there is adequate Piston to valve clearances. How to check P to V clearances is in the PDF files attached.
Two of your cam followers were no good. I replaced them and all were coated with MoS2 to assist in break in lubrication. (I`ll send you the 2 bad followers)
Head coolant plugs drilled and re- sealed.
Spark plug holes re-threaded with Time Certs
