The compression increase will gain you good power. But a set of mild 10mm cams will really bring the 2.5 to life!! Just have a minor regrind of the cams if you know of someone who can do it locally.

Also have you thought about "de-shrouding" the combustion chamber where the valves are? Since the heads are out and you will probably take the valves out again when skimming the heads.

Nice effort and a beautiful car!

V6 2,0 - 2,5 - 3,0 12V

Applikation : Road


Duration: : 272
Peak timing: : 110
Valve lift: : 9,1
Lift at TDC: : 2,7
Valve timing: : 26/66 - 66/26
Valve clearence: : 50/25


and

V6 2,0 - 2,5 - 3,0 12V

Applikation : Sport


Duration: : 288
Peak timing: : 105
Valve lift: : 9,6
Lift at TDC: : 2,5
Valve timing: : 39/69 - 69/39

Motor is waiting....

Hydraulic system means too much leak, so we use as a mechanic one
Image

The deal is "not hurting my brand new paint" !
Image


Image

I told you I found the exhaust line too much rigid, so :

Image


Image

Very hard to mount these exhaust manifold hands and fingers are too big !

Image

Image

It works !!!

Pay very good attention to the following guidelines from Schrick:

The table below gives a guideline for valve lift at TDC.
2 Valve engines with solid lifters: 2.3 mm
4 Valve engines with solid lifters: 1.5 mm
2 Valve engines with hydraulic lifters: 1.9 mm
4 Valve engines with hydraulic lifters: 1.1 mm
When these values are exceeded, engine idle will become increasingly unstable and torque delivery in the lower rpm range will be noticeably weaker.
Camshafts with larger valve durations, and a resulting higher valve lift at TDC, should only be considered for racing applications, or when each cylinder has it`s own butterfly valve.
