slydog 7,873 Posted May 7, 2014 Never was lucky enough to have alloy clevo heads when I was playing with em so I'm interested in this as well.I know what I would do but that doesn't mean it will suit what you want either.Be good to hear from people who have used em...

Trev Vaa 1,185 Posted May 7, 2014 this can all be done off the shelf.... dion ran 10.75 in his XD with an off the shelf combo almost identical to this AFD 2vs AFD intake Comp 308R (could even step down to the 288R in the corty and run well into the 10s) 11:1 comp would shit in 10s in a cortina. just get stall & gearing to suit new motor.... 1 XTREME KARTS XF reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gerg 10,871 Posted May 7, 2014 Not experienced with either but gut feeling says: drag engine = 4V Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blownxd393 25 Posted May 14, 2014 I built a 408ci with some std afd 2v heads and a comp 288 roller 11.4 comp and it went quite well on pump on the street in an xd falcon. It was very tame and crisp. If this basic combo don't get you 10s you've done somthing wrong. The guy I built the engine for already had the cam kit but if I did it again is go a split cam. I had a few hickups dialing this cam in as the manufacturer had put the dowl pin in the cam in the wrong hole LOL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
