Hi all, What would you advise for a fast road/track car?
Standard pistons etc, Just need cams and verniers.
May have throttle boddies in the end, been told piper 285's are good?
Any info please:thumb:

not a hope in hell you could fit them on sotck pockted pistons, largest you could go for is something like:
kent ast 1612
QED Q42h
about 260/264
just whip the pistons out and get the pockets deepened. sure it only cost me £20
will never make decent power on mild cams
im looking at getting pistons pocketed at mo matey so if/when you strip the motor drop me a text/message and hopefully ill know better
how do you know 285 doesnt fit?? it's only degrees, there isnt a lift mentioned.
you can fit 296 degrees cams in a stock c20xe, as long as the lift isnt huge.
i'm running 280 degrees cams on a stock XE, without any problems.
The pulse waves from lumpier cams usually plays havoc with the AFM apparently.
I'd sooner have a std XE lump on TB's, but I appreciate its more money than cams alone.
I'm sure a Grp-N chipped ECU & Optimax or Vpower fuel would probably give you what you require. Assuminmg the engine is fresh & in tune?
