i have been researching timing and port modification for almost a week now.

I have 2 old and almost dead cranks and severl old sleeves.

guess what i am about to do???


bordem at it's finest!!!!!

besides my dremmel 4000 could use a workout!!!


also i have a question about the induction port of the vspec crank. It is already beveled on the edges but i want to have it close a little bit later. Would it be better just to open up both sides??? or just take .2 mm off the closing side. I will also fang the throat. And i have a degree wheel and a digital level/angle finder so i can get the degrees on tdc and bdc.

i will also take some matierial off the con rod and make it smaller and put a better edge on it for flow.

I will fang the ports as well (minus the exhaust port)

I will however stay away from the port timing. and i will do small chages at a time and see how it goes. Besides the parts i have are garbage anyway!!!
