Yeah, it’s all over the net. You guys must have missed the part where he drilled holes in the cams to lighten them up and when turning the motor over they snapped. they were expensive Tomei’s too, not some other crap aftermarket cam

I read the whole thread… that motor and all of the fab work is horrendous. I can’t believe those guys run a “shop”

"  
"‘singh’ grooves have been proven to help combustion efficiency in 8v chambers, where the plug is offset and the combustion chamber shape is a bit odd, but the pent roof design in the 16v means it doesnt work so effectively, you’re also asking for trouble doing it to a turbo engine that doesnt want any hotspots "

wtf O.o i dont have any grooves
