OST-066: I get all wavy (4AC content)
![]() note the edge of the head is wavy, this is the last iteration of the 4AC head in the USA. Its difference from its first generational "brother" is MORE substantial, then a Blacktop head is different from a Silvertop head ![]() ![]() So why build a 4AC head??? Partially because I haven't done one for a client.... and partially because along with the head, my client included this manifold.... Twin side draft manifold for a 4AC head ![]() ![]() more to come...... ![]() Dan - You can | ![]() OST Porting service - http://hachiroku.net/forums/showthread.php?t=19991 |

Cool, I've never known of anyone building a 4ac before so it'll be good to see one for a change. I wouldn't even have guessed that there's much that can be done with one.

I was playing around with a 1/2 of a non wavy head about 2 years ago... yes I said half ![]() ![]() and gains were made... ![]() ![]() But this is a wavy (apka a swirl port) head... and while the intake opening is the same.... nothing else inside the intake port other then the valve seat is the same..... apka - also possibly known as but I jump a head ( ![]() ![]() more to come..... ![]() Dan - You can | ![]() OST Porting service - http://hachiroku.net/forums/showthread.php?t=19991 |

The wavy SOHC A head is oddly shaped for sure..... round entry, but NOTHING like the non wavy head, as it immediately changes shape inside the head
![]() port work begins.... First order - DO NO HARM... setting port size, and blending the port-to-manifold ![]() I'll be focusing on removing sharp edges, removing poorly casted areas and blending. ![]() Odd shapes throughout... look at that oddly shaped short radius... .... at least the exhaust ports are conventional ![]() more to come...... ![]() Dan - You can | ![]() OST Porting service - http://hachiroku.net/forums/showthread.php?t=19991 |

I can't wait to see the power increase on this one. It might inspire me to tune the 2E in my car instead of replacing it altogether with a 4E turbo.

By any chance, is your client also known as 84hachi?

Dan
Are you doing anything inside the chamber? Looks like both the exhaust and intake could use relief help on the side walls? Dave W |

But I just rewatched one of his videos and the manifold looks similar in shape and also has similar linkage arms, but it does differ in details. For instance this one appears to have a vacuum plug on one of the intakes. 1982 - TA60 Carina 4dr sedan - fun cruiser 1983 - AE86 Sprinter Trueno - import project 2013 - Honda Civic sport - daily driver 2004 - AEU86 dot ORG - daily domain Support our forum, buy from the AEU86 shop: ![]() |
