Loads a money..... But a very good conversion, most people today would go normally aspirated Cosworth.

There was a Piper twin cam head on eBay but this is only an 8 valve bodge.

I enquired a while back and yes they are not cheap.

 

 

Hi Iain,

Thanks for your enquiry,

we have a batch of head kits going through at the moment. Some of these are already sold.

The range of cam profiles are endless really. If you have something in mind, which is not on our list, then we can always get some cams done for you at no extra cost.

The cost of modifying the pistons would £95.00 + vat.

We do not supply an exhaust manifold with the kit, as we cannot be sure of the car its going in, but we can at an extra cost of £500 supply an Escort type , rally or big bore race.

There is a small amount of machining to do to fit the kit, but we could this for you also. We could of coarse carryout the conversion also if required. The cost of this would depend on a number of things, but the above costs would be included in the conversion. This would be approx. £2250 inc dyno set-up . So as to cost of the full kit, the current cost is £6000.00 + vat. On your current bottom end (depends on spec. ) would produce from 220 BHP upwards with Min of 190lbsft torque. This can be improved on, but its all down to engine spec. to start with. Our 2.4 all steel units are now producing over 300BHP.

I hope this is all useful, should you have any more questions please ask. OK
