im going from a 1.6 to a 2l what clutch do i get? a 1.6 or 2lt? will i need to cant to a 2lt starter? also what is the best cam for a pinto with twin 45's and big bore extractors and shaved head?

thanks heaps

you will need at 2lt clutch
yes the starter motors are different.

Depends what you want the cam for!
For street you want a lower overlap for driveability - but then do you care for low rev driveability?
I have not run my cam yet and am a little frightened of how its gonna go but i got a custom grind:
.473 thou lift (which is high)
40 degrees overlap for street driving.
So it has a pretty agressive slope on the lobes [(#)]
Should come on a little over 1000 rpm and go to about 5ish.(so i'm told)
Speak to your cam shop

when u say driveability, what is meant by that? i just want something that will have big power output, i want great acceleration. but still want to be able to cruise with it( if thats possilbe).

ok - i'm not a cam expert but:
Overlap is the amount of time the cam keeps both the inlet and exhaust vavles open simultaneously. This incleases the amount of mixture into the cylinder. This however only really works effectively when the rpm is right. If the rpm is too low it causes the engine to run rough and will have little power. However it greatly increases power when the rpm is right.
The longer the duration of each cylcle (inlet/exhaust) the more overlap occurs.
So if you have a cam that has long duration and therefore large overlap you may find it will need to idle gigher to keep running and may cough and splutter until it hit it's desired rpm range. So you gotta rev the car till like 3000 rpm to pull away.

Jump on the net and do some research on cam profiles.

2ltr twin webers.theonly cam is 520x.otherwise no use in using the webers

I had twin 40's on my 2L for years with just extractors and they were great.

45's and no cam is just about pointless in my opinion, burning lots of fuel for very little return.

Ok, what brand is the 520x ? So with the cam I want something that starts about 2500-6500. Right? what about a Mild street cam from crow cams?

Brand is "Wade".

Check out vizards book. He loves that cam.
