RE: A trip to Dave Bean Engineering, Premier Restorer of Classic Lotus sports cars for racing
SICK!!! only a hemi dual overhead cam would need to be chain driven, and im sure its dual timing chain as well...if not it needs to be! Sweet post!!
Absolutely right! Twin chains straight off the crank. Can you imagine what these must have been like in a Vega?
Also, My 02 Honda SI Hatch runs a twincam with a single chain, Which I had skip a couple teeth one day... My oldest son has that car now.
notice the Asian market came out with the over head cam in most engines? us US guys use lifters, who needs economy!
True dat... We had a '79 datsun pickup with an overhead cam. NOBODY here was "That advanced" in 1979... That truck was a turd...
those Cosworth engines make me drool...
They are beauties, huh?
Potent little suckers... the 2.0l YBT engine they put the the europran Escort RS Cosworth was like 220Hp and 230Lbft stock... and it was highly tunable (there are 1000Hp drag versions!)
