  • time for an adventure, lol

    Well this fall prior to storage, it sounded like i had an army of blacksmiths in my engine, it has about 60,000 miles on it, and alas i need to tighten the rockers, etc. So I figure if i have to rip everything apart, i might as well move up 10 1.6es, but then i figure if i have to get that deep into the engine, why the hell not throw in a cam? Alas, if i need a cam, i might as well throw on some better flowing heads too, lol.. and heck, while i've got all that apart, i might as well bolt ona set of headers too! The beauty part? The most complicated thing, mechanically i've ever done was change plugs, coilpacks, general things like that... I am plannning on doing this on early spring, and so i'll be studying the Haynes manual like mad [img]smile.gif[/img] Now, for my stock 3.4 internals now, What would you guys reccommend as far as cam, valvetrain stuff, etc? Personally I know heads with the right stuff would be a nice gain, but they may just be too much, i know a cam and rockers etc, can prolly be done.. Provided i work slow and steady, do you think this is possible?

    I really cant afford the labour of the mechanics!

          I am going to the city tomorrow to get my Chiltons manual, I am going to start Studying up [img]smile.gif[/img] Can anyone reccommend any rockers to get? Also what other valve train components should i get? On my car now, I am running A K&N CAI, Both Pullies, accell coilpacks, stuff like that.

          With 1.6 rollers and Headers any guesstimats on how much power i should be putting to the crank?

          I would love to swap to a better cam, but I can only go as good what my computer can take, i live in the middle of the boonies and cant get the puter reprogrammed. the headers would be nice too, but $$$ wise, thats pushin it..

          I woul dlike to add some juice in the future, theres a 96 GT around here owned by some punk who I'd love to smack around [img]smile.gif[/img]
