Jim did you ever tested AHMotorsport regrinded cams for 24valve? I have them for over 3 years now on stock hydraulic lifters. They should be around 9.8 lift and 290° duration, timing is at 107° for all 4 cams.
Engine feels strong and revs nice.

yety i know you follow my thread too. My 3.0 was somewhere around 270 bhp (when in my fwd gtv) as i was on par with megane and focus RS on 0 to 200kph acceleration (similar weight than my gtv) After that i rebuilded the engine again (i wanted to balance it by Jim's book) and it now lives in my light...

Exhaust manifolds welded from outside to get more flow http://shrani.si/f/3w/WW/1vly2UuE/kolektor.jpg before after http://shrani.si/f/3o/aP/1AFG0JlG/kolektprimer.jpg First cranking to get the oil around (no spark plugs) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QapxdAsBsA8 First start (bare engine) http://www....

Yep i was told they are 290°. Well i have them almost two years now and in my gtv (916) i was totaly satisfied.

Adie from AHM told me so
I had them at 106° when engine was in my gtv and now i will try the spec from the man that sell this regrind cams.

Yep that's mine, permanent 4 with welded viscous coupling and modified gear coupling in gearbox. And ofcourse remowed front axles and diff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ur7NZQczh_w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZjqKVTNVJQ V6 has all cams dialed now (max lift at 107°) http://shrani.si/f/1n/qr/4bc...

I converted 33 to rwd once...
I know it's a rwd forum, that's why i'm posting about engine and not the car!

Yes, 156 2.5v6 with broken engine.
Lightened to 1250kg (-50kg at front!)all pu bushes, ahm lsd, changed geometry (5cm longer wheelbase - bigger castor) front gta swaybar, rear homemade blade arb, koni sport kit and so on

Well mine spins from standstill with 10nm (breakaway torque?) then ofcourse it goes easier. Some say that this should be measured without piston rings or even piston and conrods??? I think it's ok. Cams are in: http://shrani.si/f/3f/Fi/2FRHNJSR/odmicne-not.jpg I spinned the oil pump with a drill to ...

Feels great! :D all torqued up at the bottom http://shrani.si/f/42/lU/2f2Iay4A/spodifertikmoment.jpg assembly spins with 10nm of force (i think that's ok - i googled for some numbers hehe) http://shrani.si/f/1r/fd/33CXwe8x/10nmvrtenje.jpg head gaskets, lifter cleaned, new water pump... http://shrani...

Cleaning the crank http://shrani.si/f/E/xJ/41jdcfiD/gredpucam.jpg Measuring all again with new bearings http://shrani.si/f/43/mj/2lOoBsT7/gredmerim.jpg crank assembled and main bearings torqued http://shrani.si/f/3v/bR/24FoIFPS/lezajiglavni.jpg liners in (widest side aligned with crank - well they a...

i really wonder how do those engines run where they just swap 15kg dualmass for singlemass 8kg...

Finally the crank is balanced!




And i've got piston rings:

Flexhoned the cilinders, crosshatch is nice like stock!
