Re: In Response to Javi's Post....
id like to see more technical information in this thread... we have alot of smart vets in here...
im curious as to the problem with head size. it makes sense that too large of a head will cause problems with velocity... i assume its like having a garden hose without a nozzle on it, and having a garden hoze with a nozzle...
how do we determine the proper head size? should we match the head to the blower, or the blower to the head?
what would pros and cons be of improper matching? eventhough the heads are overkill and the blower is the bottle-neck, would my reliability and MPG be better than a larger/better blower with the heads as the bottle neck?
As 95PGT said, finding a good deal is a selling point to many of us (not me... but some of us)
and Paul has always been a strong proponent of using efficient, yet cost effective equipment.
also, as paul said, "Understanding and applying the science behind compressors isn't just applicable in Outlaw cars."
obviously, if you want a good, reliable car that will last 500,000 miles... you wont just slap on whatever kit you find on craigeslist...
do you guys have any resources that helpped you? (other than a $50,000.00 trade school)
do alot of these same principles apply across the board? (VVT, pushrod, modular, DOHC, SOHC, 3v, 5v, etc?)
