The V8 Owners Forum -

Hi Paul. Correct mate...UK suppliers don't always live upto my expectations in terms of after sales service. I set my standards quite high and expect the same from those who take my hard earned money. I see no harm in that :roll: Hmmm...my 130 engine with blue rocker covers. That brand new engine dr...

Can anyone tell me if V8 Develeopments are still in business? In the past 6 weeks I've sent them 4 emails and left three messages on their answering machine. I can understand companies having email issues, but to only ever get an answer machine when I call them has me wondering whats going on. I bou...

I was reading that the teflon based snake oils can slowly choke the oil filters with the build up of Teflon particles....this in turn reduces the efficiency of the filter. That makes sense....but I wonder how long it would take. My train of thought says that I would have changed the filter long befo...

Once I've completed some proper logging I will most certainly put the data on display here. The first set of figures where taken when had the lamdar in one of the primary manifolds. I've now moved it to after the Y peice so the numbers of the AFR will be for both banks combined. To be honest with Mr...

I've already been in touch with Sean @ V8 D's...he's been extremely helpfull.

My garage were aware that the heads h...

I'm not sure if this is the right area for this post but here goes. Ever since I had a 4.6 Efi engine built locally here in dubai I've been having some problems with it. Massive over fuelling was my primary concern and lack of performance was close behind. It's been a two year learning curve but eve...

Hi Matt. Thx for your response. There was no evidence of coil binding and I didn't see any whitness marks on top of the pistons to indicate valves hitting the crowns. I wasn't present during the final fitting of the rockers but I believe that no pre-load was set during the instalation. I know that t...

I've joined this forum because I've experianced some problems with my 4.6 engine and no one seems to be capable of giving answers or solutions. I purchased a Kent cams MDC1 268 and a Vernier Power pulley to compliment it. My mapping is via a Mark Adams Tornado 4.6 hotwire 14CUX. When it came to fitt...

I put this up yesterday as my first post but for some reason it's dissapeared :? Anyhow. How can I tell the difference between 3.9 heads, 4.0 heads & 4.6 heads without reffering to the casting numbers? What problems can we foresee if 3.9 heads are used on a 4.6 block, crank and pistons? Cam is 3...
