Some valve work
Jon Milledge cam with race springs for the valves

What is everyone doing for intakes? Right now I am using a stock 951, what after market options other than Hayward?
Don't see a 951 intake on the Hayward site?

My 3.0l 16v died due to a rod bearing failure at the track so now I'm building a new engine.
Specs to be finalized but it will have quite a few upgrades compared to my last engine...

Offset stroked crank (91 mm), dry sleeves, dry sump, new 4-1 headers with a real merge collector, larger turbine housing and probably also new cams. To top it off I will dyno tune it on E85 right from the start.

Correct and they won't make me a custom one either.

Way to go! Is it running and on the road? Do you have a knock counter and/or Vitesse's V-knock?
