I know this has been covered before, and I have read many of the posts, but can someone please confirm the 1.6 Pinto GT spec, specifically the valves as I've read conflicting information about exactly what valves are used.
I think it uses the following:
- • 2.0 camshaft - 268 degree, 1mm extra lift vs. 1.6 spec 256 degrees
• 32/36 DGAV
• 4-2-1 exhaust manifold
• 2.0 inlet valves 42mm. 2.0 are shorter than 1.6, and I'm assuming needed due to the extra lift of the 2.0 camshaft?
• Exhaust valves... 2.0 (36mm) or 1.6 (34.39mm)?
Reason for going to 1.6 GT Spec is I want a little extra performance for the Capri, and I have all the bits left over from a 2.0 Pinto I'm using in a Ginetta G4 racer. So apart from the hardened valve seats there is no monetary cost involved.
Thanks for your help,
Dean
