How will these work with the VVT?
What other changes will be necessary?
What other changes will be necessary?
The idea is for them to still work with the VVT as a direct swapmaggi112":2kh0fski said:How will these work with the VVT?
If they are like most engines, there will be a couple of profiles which would be a direct swap. Theres likely to be some more agresive profiles with high lift and designed for higher RPM which would start needing things like deeper pockets in the piston crown to accomodate the lift and give the valve head some clearance and solid lifters to cope with the higher RPM... However bottom end work would probably be needed as well if your going over 7500 on a regular basismaggi112":2kh0fski said:What other changes will be necessary?

Neil Purdie- Matt. Can you confirm the OE profile specs. Wondering how they compare to your replacement ones for the 700 series engines

Oliver Seegmüller- If they are working as good as the 2704 I have in my K4M, they are clearly worth waiting.

Neil Purdie- Hey Matt. With the above delays, TBH, I'm not at all surprised now. I think I've been more than patient with what you expected to be a 12 week job, so heres a months notice to return my head, as I still want to have some work done on it. With all the measuring and profiles apparently done, that should give enough time to grind some new ones and test fit them. Either return it by 20th Nov, or send me a replacement. Thanks, Neil.
