have you got photos of the damage?

One of my mates just bought some Brian crower 272 cams, valve springs and retainers but is using standard lifters. I heard the hla's sometimes callapse though, so Is it worth getting solid lifters as well? I am thinking about getting the same cams springs and retainers because they are cheap from America

No thank you mate you explained a lot there. What are some decent fuel pumps? And would a det oil pump be ebough to cope? Sorry about all the questions but I'm new to all this stuff

I'd get a det if it was easy but I live near mackay and there isn't many around. And getting one from down south would be a bit of a headache. So was jus seeing if modding a de would be possible. Would the lack of oil squirterseffect it much? And would some work to the headelimate over revving?

My plan was to buy a my mates hks high mount and power enterprise pe1420 set up and just get a greedy plenum, and either do cams, valve springs etc, and run it until it blows up and then get forged pistons rods and maybe even stroke it to 2.2. Are de blocks the same as det blocks? Would it be possible to make 250+ rwkw from a de block?

I'm thinking about building my sr20de to run a turbo. If I get a striker kit,forged pistons and rods, valve springs, solid lifters and 272 cams etc, is it worth keeping my sr20de block and head and just replacing evrything or geta red top or something? Just seeing what everyone thinks and if anyone has done it if it's worth it I heard you need to drill and tap oil lines In the block (which a machine shop could easily do when getting the block bored and sleeved) and need a new oil pump and some modifications to the sump aswelll

Thanks for that.

I've already got the head on and tensioned it up to spec. I've done 100 or so kms since Ive changed it. Do you have to retension the headbolts or is it fine if you tension them right when reinstalling the head?

I just changed my head gasket in my s13. I know a guy who had a rb25 and didn't Retension his headbolts and had all sorts of trouble. I was just wondering if anyone knew if you had to do this for sr's the thing that would make it hard how when your tensioning the head bolts the last two tensions are in degrees, not foot lbs or anything
