Ported Heads!!!!

Fully ported heads from Pairetoe's engine that he parted out. I also grabbed his cam (copy of the 260H), 1.6 roller rockers, lifters, and pushrods. Now all I need is a motor to put these on.

 

Did you get the lifters with that cam, and seperated and numbered so that they go back on the SAME lobes?

 

I got lifters and pushrods too. The parts only had 50 miles on them so I'm not to worried about that.

 

Looks like a lot more wear than 50 miles. My Cam that had over 20000 Kms had less wear indications than the one you have pictured.

besides, once they are broke in, they HAVE to go back on the same lobes, the entire reason for break in is to set the wear pattern between the cam and the lifters.

 

that cam is brand new. all those parts are. i had them in the car and only put on 50 miles before i parted it out. they sat for a year before they got put in, and about a month after, until now. but happy to see you got every thing. haha i think i even left the spark plugs in the heads.

btw any luck with the victor gaskets?

 

Pictures can be decieving when showing camshaft wear. The flash makes it look ALOT worse than it actually is in many cases. That being said, you can reclaim lifters fairly easily and even put new lifters on a used camshaft.

 

I've had people say that exact same thing to me, as they were installing new lifters on thier "barely used" cam, and usually only a couple months later they do the very same thing, because thier lifters are worn, and then again a few months later, until they listen to me and replace both cam and lifters with new ones at the same time.

I don't doubt that flash can change the way things look, as I have experianced that first hand, but damn, that's a lot of flash flare to look that bad.

 

I haven't gotten around to looking for Victor Jr askets yet, I will soon. I have other problems to worry about tight now like my current motor.

I did use the on the camera because my room is a little dark on that side from a blown bulb.
