At Medford I talked to Doc about my Mosquito reduction process during launch.
I will be popping the valve springs for an inspection of the seals, and failing damage to the seals, I'll pop the head loose to see what's going on with the guides.
With the spring and lift rates I've got, I may be pinching the seals and putting too much oil to the valve stems.
A quick look in the rear view on launch reveals I'm hiding the landing craft from the beach! Holy toledo Admiral!
If it's guides, my builder will be handling things. He told me he'd take care of the problem.
If the head comes off, I'll drop the ported head off my old race motor on there. Much smaller valves, but it'll get me by. So how much hose you putting to yours Tristan?
Next up is a heat shield that seals to the hood. I may build the hood scoop out to the nose of the car to catch some more pressure too. The way it's built, I'm afraid I put the intakes in a low pressure zone.
Fun stuff Wot?
