Default Re: Twin plug Heads

Hello, Sorry about not replyong sooner but I have been croock (sick). First,please accept my most humblr grovel. The lifters are out of a V6 GM motor, they will be converted to a solid lifter as they have to be shortened, a plug will replace the Hydaulic pieces the lifters will require a sleeve in the lifter bore. The gap for clearence will be done as Ford intended by grinding. Yhe valves etc;are timed out from a race car. I seemed to have shifted countries as I live in Australia but what the Hell!!!!!!
I have a set of "Special" heads which are 2 piece and used on race boats. These have been mapped on a computer and will be made on a CNC mill.
The plug location will be set up either as Flat fire is with the 2 plugs near or over the Ex. valve Or as Richardo had it the first plug between the exh. valve and the bore and the second over the exh. valve. As there 10m. plugs and the thickness in the combustion chamber to be worked out, I will include photos soon as at the moment I am waiting for some money that has been left to me. The reason for using the late rollers is that they are very cheap and appear to have little or no wear.ROGER
