Hey Guys,
Well a major problem with my engine (F2T found in 1st gen mx6's and Turbo 626's) is its ability or lack of to flow air. So what are the main limiting factors traditionally that impeade head flow in a 4 cylinder 12 valve (two inlet valves per cylinder) sohc engine.
Surely a fair bit of porting would help on the intake manifold as well as larger inlet valves and a cam upgrade to increase lift duration but is that pretty much it? what would yield the biggest gains, but i suppose that depends on application...
I use to think that the lack of flow would be related to the limited number of valves (on the exhaust side anywayz) but after reading that those HSV 300kw V8's only have 16 valves that obviously not as important as i initially thought.
Any1 happen to know the main restirictions in the head design of the F2T motor?
Thanks guys,
Frank
