Mild tuning a 1300 x Flow
myke pocock - 14/4/11 at 08:16 PM

Now that I have a 32 DGAV coutesy of a forum member I want to mildly tune the engine to suite it. At present it is bog standard apart from the Sport exhaust manifold. What cam should I use and do I need head work as well or do I need to go as far as an Escort Sport head? Comments please?

im assisting my dad building a 1300 x flow locost, and we have used a ford GT spec cam, has a blue mark on it.

nothing else done to engine (except different carbs)

it is still relatively low compression, and this can be raised by changing the pistons i believe.

i want to supercharge it and me dad keeps adding wood bits to the car, it will look like noahs ark when its done!
