rj Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 I could be interested in the cams. Who have made them? I suppose those aren't "proper" VHPD cams as those wouldn't be for a VVC head, so can you confirm which profile it is?` Thanks Regin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foggy Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Please could you advise if the throttle bodies would be a straight forward upgrade to my Roadsport (non VVC) 1800 K series? Would dearly love a little bit more grunt than my current 120 Bhp but my trouble is, I'm a non mechanic on a VERY tight budget!! 😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Locust Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Foggy, you would need to budget for an ECU upgrade to get throttle bodies working properly. On an EU3 car there is no plug compatible ECU so rewiring or an adaptor (generally have to make your own) is required too.

Foggy Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Hi Ian, Many thanks for that, looks like I need to do more research into costs and feasability first then. Much appreciated, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7 wonders of the world Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Hi Foggy, Nifty is running a thread at the moment regarding MBE or Emerald, seems he might be looking to sell one of them, might be worth droping him a mail. FWIW 2nd Emeralds are like hens teeth, and still comand a fair % of there original price - they really are the dogs though cheers Too young to be old !

Miura Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Foggy, as im about to embark on the same route (I already have the TB's though) on top of a suitable ECU (emerald, MBE...) you will also need to get the head reworked to match the inlet ports to the TBs. I would also say that hotter cams are a must but I am sure someone more competent lile Oily will be along soon to give you a full explanation Edited by - Miura on 18 Dec 2007 17:45:54 Edited by - Miura on 18 Dec 2007 17:46:56 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foggy Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Hi Miura, thanks for your input but its all sounding far to involved and expensive at this time. Looks like I'll just have to settle for what I've got at the mo. Think perhaps I need to learn a bit more as well! Thanks for everyones advice though. ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAB Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Hello Does the air-filter sit within the bonnet lines or does it need a cut out? Cheers CAB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Wilson Posted December 22, 2007 Author Share Posted December 22, 2007 Sorry about the delay, the air filters require a bonnet cut out when fitted to K Series. Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rj Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Dave, I haven't received the required info re the engine to check if the cams are of any use for me. /regin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
