Howdy.
Why can't you put a DOHC BA/BF head on an EF/EL block??? I can't get my head around it. The BA/BF block is carry over from EF/EL/AU... |

plus, isn't the head a fair bit longer in the barra, due to the twin cam or something?
As I recall JetXR had a big f**k hole in his bonnet to fit the engine in. |

The DOHC head looks wider, so i'd assume the top of the block is also wider.

It's in his gallery Jay, 149.2rwkw... I'd like to know what the blue run is, the one with the exact some power curve except 10kw lower...

The difference is about 13-15kw (I can't remember I lost my first printout...  )
The blue line is pre-cam. The red line is with cam. I'm expecting a higher figure when I have it re-dynoed later in the year as it was putting out noticabley more power after about a week two from the install. Not sure why, but it just was... |
