All jokes aside, a bold project for you Kevin and I hope it is worth the effort. Time will tell. I am sure the journey is as much fun as any project before and then some...

Re: introducing myself
I have a 33 16v with a modified engine (porting and cams), Max advance at full throttle was 24º at 7600 rpm's, 30º seems too much for me. Do you know of any other V6's built to your spec? maybe something wrong with the piston's design or material? If Barry built this engine he probably has built an ...
