Thanks guys,
Thanks Harv I am thinking something similar to the Camtech 639 108 cam. Will that Cam make 125HP?
I have not heard many people talking about Camtech cams?
I think when I mentioned Cams with David a year ago or so, he mentioned Crow Cams?
I am not sure if Clives are still developing ...

Can anyone tell if it was running on leaded or unleaded last?
Apart from running on oil on number 6, the left Plug.

Anyway, the net nanny at work stopped me from posting last week.
I am home now and I ripped the head and the front cover off.

Thanks Blacky,
Yes, I am aware of Harv`s Guru Status, having Purchased 3 of the High Duty Head Gaskets though Harv.
I have spent many hours reading 0.01% of his Posts, on Various Forums, his name pops up everywhere.
I am sure I will be asking his assistance when sorting out the half a dozen BXOV-1 ...

Thanks Blacky,
I will have a look at the Video later tonight when the Boss is not looking.
In regards to increasing Cubic Inches, Galloway do a Stroker Crank, Rods etc that will increase the Grey Motor to around 160 CI.
While this will make easy to achieve the Goal HP and have a very smooth Engine ...

Are you Bored? Bang for Buck Engine recipe required.
Hi Guys,
When I was young I had an LC GTR Torana with a 161S Engine opel Gearbox, they made 125 HP at 4800 rpm. 9.2-1 Compression ratio.
It was standard, it had 2 barrel, GTR headers. slight lope and nice sporty power.
The Torana weighed 1013 KG. My 1955 FB Holden Ute weighs 1012KG.
I would like to ...

Re: Steel timing gear for a EK grey motor
Yes I don't mind the rims at this stage.
I have new Hankook tyres on now but I am going to paint the rims black and fit the FC Hubcaps and maybe some 13 inch dress rims.
I feel like I am hijacking the thread, so bye for now.
I might test her out and drive up Kalamunda hill in a couple of weeks.

Re: Steel timing gear for a EK grey motor
Thanks Guys,
I am in Perth
I am naughty and don`t have a FB or EK.
I have a FJ ute with a Grey and is a 70`s style custom, done in the late 70`s
13 x 6 wheels thus smaller brakes from later models, rear roll pan and Hillman minx rear tail lights bogged onto the rear of the Ute.

Re: Steel timing gear for a EK grey motor
Thanks Harv,
I did hear sometimes they are noisy to start off but usually quieten down within 12 months.
I will use it for my J motor build.
It was under half of the price of an Alloy set.
Thanks again

Re: Steel timing gear for a EK grey motor
Hi Ed here,
I have just purchased a complete Master set with Iron Cam gear Steel Crank Gear double lip seal and thrust plate NIB.
Are they any good?
Or are the JP Alloy gear sets better?
I like how the Crank gear has 3 keyways so the Cam can be advanced or retarded, not sure how many degrees.
