[EVL20V]

hey,

i gota silvertop 20v, wana slap a 16v head on as ive heard thats a gud idea is it a direct bolt on? do i need 2 change manifolds? get retuned? etc etc. wot gains are to b had also. cheeeeers

also, would it b wise to put some better cams/valve springs etc gasket etc in at the same time?

[Bling]

out of interest, what makes it a good idea, well what did u hear... just wondering

[EVL20V]

an older guy who builds race cars etc said to do so. because he raced formula fords or woteva they are that have the 20v's in them ( ) but he said silvertop are rubbish and 2 go blacktop or 16v head on silvertop. i dont know any reasons y myself

[CozmoNz]

buy a ze bottom end, strap a turbo on, fmic, some tuning (you already have a link afterall), bit more boost... (after selling ur teg, you must have some money lying around). and youll have quite a bit more guts than those fomrula fords have.

however youll be way heavier, so meh!

[Mr Revhead]

you have been talking to an idiot.

formula ford 20v??? wtf??

fit a blacktop head to ya silvertop, and if you wanna get carried away, fit the pistons as well and run with an aftermarket ecu

[EVL20V]

anyways, yes i was thinkn go blacktop head, and i have a LINK v4.

Formula Atlantic run 16v's as far as I know

Formula Toyota, A race class in japan, near stock Silvertops used, out of intrest why would an old guy in nz know "everything" about them, since iv only seen one in nz.

Strangest thread, ever.

Formula Fords use a 1600cc Ford (duh) kent motor, with a sum total of 8 valves (as in Ford Escort Sport).

Formula Atlantic are the 4AGE 16

Toyota Racing Series use the Celica 1800.

I think you really want to start asking yourself who you've been listening too.

Formula Fords run either a Kent or Zetec engine, soon to run a Duratec also. However there are several that have been converted to hill sprint cars and have a 4age in their rear.

Formula Atlantic are either BDA or 4age using the ZE block. This racing series is also about to change engines. This time to a non- Toyota engine.

Formula Toyota is a racing series in Japan using the 20 valve 4age engine.

Formula Fords in NZ use the Kent only.
Atlantic .... doh, yes, forgot that.
Toyota Racing Series races in NZ ... not Formula Toyota

[vvega]

[Leon]

Yep, and I said Toyota Racing Series, not Formula Toyota

So everyone wins.
