yeah, 2.3 springs



the build for this went as:

2.4 parts:
1mm oversized valves
valve stem seals
keepers
bronze guides
valve spring seats on exhaust
valve rotators on intake

2.3 parts:
retainers
HO valve springs

the rest of the head parts are just sitting here waiting me to throw it on and include:

modded 2.4 cam tower and the 35mm lifters
brand new W41 410 lift 218 duration cams intake and exhaust
2.3 exhaust cam tower
arp head studs
and all the gaskets to seal this bitch

what work is involved in putting the 2.3 valve springs on?


01' Z24 5 speed
422whp/400wtq
T4 Turbocharged
Built LD9
HP Tuners

none,

just gotta find the retainers for them which proved to be a pain in the ass but i got the source if anyone else needs them

I have an appointment on Friday to see about getting some retainers made to fit the 2.3 spring and correctly use the 2.4 keepers. Oh and if it goes through they will be Ti. retainers.

lets see this happen. make sure to keep us posted. i have a head sitting out back waiting for some machining/parts/cams

The general manager is supposed to call me Friday morning so I can come in and sit down with him to discuss this. If all works out I will have pics up when they are done. I am hoping for less than $250 for the set of 16.

Scott can you post pics of the retainers you are going to use

Gotta make sure i have what i need here

Thanks

i bought the 2.3 valve spring retainers, cant take a pic seeing as how the head is fully assembled right now

NICE! its almost the time!!
