OST-044: What the "F"?
It has been a while since I did an "F" head, Grunt's lump was built Dec 2010 to June 2011 - F head port, and rebuild

This "F" head is a later type, with the raised intake ports.

Time to get it cleaned and pressure checked

Yes.... 4, or 7 AFE

as to parts supply, there are a few companies who can make you cams... biggest issue there is the slave driven intake cam off the exhaust cam, and trying to adjust them independently....

Which head does he have? The first "F" head I worked was an early one with crappy ports, this one is cast much better.

from another forum Wrote:Those 2nd gen intake ports are so steep.

That they are.....

[Image: AEU86 AE86 - OST-044: What the "F"?]


The intake valves are also bigger, 1st gen 30mm, 2nd gen 31mm Wink



That is the extent of the good news... the bad news.... the front oil drain still interferes with the exhaust flow on #1 exhaust port Sad

That's quite a big difference in amount of material that you can remove between #1 and #4

While you are still trying to see what I see.... Angel



7 years ago when I built "Grunt's Lump, OST-011", I didn't have the easiest(best?) tool for setting, AND measuring the valves.......

Here is the design, and building process for the tool I'll be using this time.....

quite a bit more accurate and reliable!

wider valve spacing on the exhaust valves..... although not clear enough to measure in the photo, if you look at the cam journals, the intake journal is about 2mm narrower then the corresponding exhaust cam journal
