i'd just take it back to bare metal..then chrome it...bit more expensive, but gives a better effect, and also give you a fair bit more power

does any one know the specs of the cam used in a p.p 13b???


LMAO! Funniest thing i've read all day.

Cam from a 13B pp would be f**k awesome. Could get some 20B valves and then stroke it out with a 12A crankshaft. I think the 10A had high-ratio roller rockers.

Throw on a 12A Savanna head to up the compression a bit

Mwahahahahaha :lol: :lol:

all this power sounds awsome. but dont forget to add a second trans as 1 might not cope and you will have 8 gears to boot. also check the headlight fluid as this will help. if its low i recomend halogen fluid.

After having a serious look at this, you wouldnt even need to weld them together. All youd have to do is cut the back off of two motors, and then bolt the four cylinders on the left bank together using the bellhousing. That way you save on welding :) Then just stick a bit of chemiweld over the oil gallerys and fix it all up. But then if your using the standard craank youe gonna have to vut it off. Rather than use a hacksaw or buying a drop saw, jst start the motor up and stick a blade on the end and itll go straight through! But you might have another problem, the throws on the crank arent wide enough for two conrods, so just weld on to the other :) Should be heaps good
