sambo Posted January 25, 2007 Author Report Posted January 25, 2007 lol, cheers anyway! Fingers crossed this WILL be a good'un
Admin Vista Posted January 25, 2007 Admin Report Posted January 25, 2007 If it still got Ford cams in it, it sounds to me like it's still a turbo set up. Is it safe to assume that as Ford didn't make a NA Cosworth then there's no such thing as a stock N/A Cosworth head? Having said that I've no idea if the cans need to be changed anyway when moving from turbo to NA
sambo Posted January 25, 2007 Author Report Posted January 25, 2007 I just read on the internet that the std cosworth turbo cams have a lot of room for re-profiling so hopefully thats what has happened?!?! I gues the best thing is to just chuck it in and see what it goes like!!

Guest MK1gaz Posted January 26, 2007 Report Posted January 26, 2007 Sam the standard cams have probably been re-profiled to atmo spec so don't worry mate . I saw that engine on ebay and it's quoted at 208 bhp at the wheels so if true will go like foooooooook
