    Cylinder Head Skim
    Engine Bore
    Pistons Polished and chemically cleaned
    Lightened Fly wheel
    Polished Crank

    Anything else i can do? Absolutely anything?

    saab turbo
    you could take a dremel thing to the cylinder head and remove any ingle berries in the ports. 3 angle or raius valve seats are a good move too.

    balance the bottom end with the fly, clutch, etc fitted. make it nicer to rev. other than that, just make sure the bores are 90 deg to the crank from the end and from the side. othe rthan thaty search for threads on blueprinting and any started but chip or tfs. both vare full of useful info
    curiosity killed the cat...................but for a while i was a suspect!!
