Hello Guest, welcome to the initial stages of our new platform!
You can find some additional information about where we are in the process of migrating the board and setting up our new software here
Thank you for being a part of our community!
Esim kl-racings t5 is a good choice, same as Timo's Motorin 13.10, or you can regrind a Custom camshaft from a-cam, and you can get cam that is designed to your engine and works perfectly with other parts.
Headwork is essential at these kind of projects, I think that valves must be at least 46/38, if you are going to Itb route you also need static compression as high as 12:1 - 14:1, example 14:1 is not that much of a dynamic compression if you had an aggressive camshaft.
Here in Finland The F-group rallycars use redblocks very often, they had an 14:1 compression, 48/40 valves, aggressively ported 531 heads, and a 14-15mm lift camshaft and 37 or 40mm solid lifters. They drive with 50mm webers or 50-55mm ITB:s.
If 2.3l then this kind of engine can produce at least 250hp, the best engines can produce 270hp if 2.3.
At rallycross there is an Evo-headed 2.8-3.2l redblocks with 16v heads and they produce maybe 370hp, if it is a three liter engine.
And they had a very good pover curve and they can produce also hell of a lot torque at 4000rpm and they rev over 8000rpm.
And this kind of car is also very drivable because of kinda "flat" torque curve.
But, sorry, i lost the point.
Thank you, mine is designed in LVR-racing engines, same speed-shop which made my cylinder head too. He had also cnc-machine and engine dyno to test his engines.Halo Jussi,
Excellent information from the field you share here on turbobricks.
What is the lift of the Esim T5 is it similar in lift and duration to SAM extreme T5 which is 11? Also who on your end can regrind the the A cams CORRECTLY?
If you ever come here the Lager is all on me.....
TIA,
Hubert

The conversion is in the works but not completed yet so i dont have any photos so soon as I have I'll post some up. The head is having some breathing and polishing work done as we speak but right now I've got to rush, watch this space
Thank you, mine is designed in LVR-racing engines, same speed-shop which made my cylinder head too. He had also cnc-machine and engine dyno to test his engines.
They also design parts, example headers and intake manifolds etc etc.
When i made my cam and head i just told to him what i wanted. I say it must produce power in range of 3500-7500 and N/A power should be something about 180whp, Then they put a 46/38 valve package to a 530 cylinder head, and good double springs, then they regrind a cam, it had to be a,d,v,vx,vx3,k or h then base circle doesn't go too little. The bigger the base circle then it's more gently to lifter.
They say that if my engine doesn't blow up it can produce something about 750whp, but my goals are about 450hp from flywheel.
I try to make as much na-power that i possibly can. It doesn't depend on the head, it flows 220hp with basic double weber intake manifold attached, also cam is aggressive enough, 12mm lift 278@0.050, they had around 500 ready to grind files in machine, in those they choose cam for you, intake manifold will be this:
exhaust manifold is also a good piece, and turbo is large enough, Super hx40 with 18# exhaust housing. I think 180hp na power will be possible with this setup. So then it produces 360hp with 1 bar of boost, with 2 bars it is about 540hp, in theory but they go like this with experienced tests that example Richard Holdener does in youtube. And also when you read s?varturbo forums this kind of calculating formula pops up.
I had to came only because Lager is yours...
Take your head and cam and come here, porting job alone with 46/38 valve package costs to me something about 600? including all valvework and multiangle valve job, if you put a 850? to it, then head comes assembled and shimmed. And with a good valvesprings, they are damn same springs that they used in professional rallying. And with a selected camshaft to just to your machine,for example they had 20 different v16t camshaft grinds only, every cam is little different than another, valve events may differ and lift and LSA and if it had advanced or not etc etc. it's actually are not LVR which grinds cams, but he sells those and select those also. If you wanna a 200hp na-power, you will propably get there with good compression.
Then we can sell the head and cam at 1200$ in U.S, we made a 450? / $ profit. Is there Volvo tuners that need a good head and cam service. You can call them in weekends also, sometimes i call to them and then we talk about cars hour or two...
With this head 2.3l had produced 240whp at 7200rpm, it had 14mm lift camshaft and a good headers. Static cr is only a 12:4! the head costs 650? if you bring your own cam and 850? with reground cam.
I can buy lagers and off course a vodka because were in finland...
Its kind of cheap because you can get a 200 na hp with so little money, then only bump up compression and you have a very torquey rally engine, these 2-valve heads in redblocks at light chassis are very good to drive. My friend had a rallycar also wit redblock engine, it is something about 750kg in weight and it had only b200 engine with h-camshaft and double webers, maybe a 140hp. but it is torquey in nature and in small chassis he can tease BMW:s in rallying. It also had a gearbox with different ratios than standard, also 5:1 rear end ratio and a LSD helps this kind of light machine to go at respectful speeds through the forest...
Are there this kind of services. I think that maybe to a small block chevy they can make same than they make to redblocks in here, they are everywhere!!!
This is incredible. I know many have likely seen this but I haven't. 400 hp NA. Please share more links to these cool parts please. Is that an AMM here or are they driving by wire now? The "nuke" rail is interesting too. I also may want to become nuclear. 
wow loads of information to digest, sorry for being late to my own party, busy day yesterday
