I was thinking of using a gtir pulsar plenum top over the itbs.

Also looking at the cast top mount manifold, any thoughts with these set-ups?

Many Thanks

Recently I've been thinking of turbo'in my 4age over the winter. At this stage I'm only looking at small amounts of boost just to give me alittle more over standard bhp. Advice needed as to what is needed to start this: Current build.. 4age large port 20v silvertop itbs Small port injectors Aftermar...

I currently have a large port running on ae101 itbs. Now if I wanted to keep it NA, would it be best to stick some small port Pistons in? Or drop a full silvertop engine in?

Still might go 7age, as I've just got a 7afe engine for next to nothing. Any ideas would be fantastic.

Gents,

I want a shallower sump as I'm struggling for clearance. How much could I shave off? Or does anyone sell something like this? Any points/advice or photos would be fantastic

Many thanks

Does any one have the complete set of timing covers for a RWD 16v? Also, would be happy to post to UK

Gents, Ive seen on ebay a cover over the Ignition leads between the cam covers (16V). I've got a bigport and was wondering what leads I need to achieve this look? This is probably a stupid question, but i had to ask. If any one has this setup, would you mind posting a photo so i can see the finished...

Hello There,

Looking for a set of Toda 16V Cam Gears, I'm based in the UK, hard to find over here.

Many Thanks

Just a quick question to ask if any one has increased the rod size in a 7afe block to keep the engine in the 1600 class? Was just talking about the possibility this week, opening out the question.

Yes, its going into a mk2 Cortina, looks like the bay will be big enough.

I have been reading that the T2 turbo might be better stock, and then find a suitable manifold to match.

Thanks for your help

Gents,

Would the attached kit work on a stock bluetop 4age?

I'm looking for something special to do with my 4age,

many thanks

Gents,

Just seen the videos online of this set-up. Anyone running this kind of power, and if so does it make the difference?

Love the engineering angle..

Many Thanks

The make are Aisin? Running a compression of 10-3-1. Is this right?

If they were standard bore, what compression would we be looking at?

Gents,

Just seen these, but the only info I have is that they are high compression out of a red top. Can anyone shed anymore light on what they are etc etc...



Many thanks

As discribed, for a solid street 7age. Which cams do you recommend? Also, if i change the cams, pistons and rods, what return would I expect to see(bhp)?

Would it be best to stay on S/T itbs?

Many Thanks for your replys gents, Whats the quickest and easiest way to boost C/R? I was thinking the 7age route purely for that something different that i love under the bonnet of my classic. With 7afe engine selling for a couple of hundread $$ over here, seemed a good project to start. Or do i st...

search "4age Cortina by Retropower" on facebook Unfortunately, I'm away from home quite alot, and so asked these lads to fit it. As far as i know, its been straight forward, but has had almost all the parts renewed inc the cortina's electrics. The photos on the page show a step by step gui...

Hello There, I have just gone against the grain over this side of the pond and put a 4age 16 (largeport) into my mk2 Ford Cortina, an idea that is either going to make or break the purists. But before she even turns over in anger, I’m looking at what to do next, so I thought I’d open the idea to the...
