Help please!
I am in the market to upgrade my engine to make it quick, reliable and fuel efficient (i know im not asking for much)
I have an A+ 1275 metro rebored to 1293. The camshaft is the original metro cam. When i first got the car running it made 69bhp. That has now dropped to 64bhp in a year with minimal driving and is now becoming very juddery when i drive so I'm going to rebuild it.
Now,
What i need help with is deciding which cam to get and I have a few options:
MED RS - 264 duration with a power band from 1250-6500rpm
ACD RS - Duration @ 0.016" 248 with power band from 1250rpm to 6000rpm,
Evolution001 - 264 Duartion unknown power band
I was also planning to buy:
1.3 roller rockers or 1.28 modified A+ rockers
lightened flywheel
adjustable vernier duplex
double valve springs
have my 12g940 head ported and gas flowed with new valves and seats
Question is, which camshaft should i buy if i want a smooth idle, but when i put my foot down the power kicks in promptly and accelerates quickly through gears. And with this, what parts from my list of other upgrades should i pair with the suggested cam to have an overall strong, reliable, fun, efficient engine.
The parts will all be put together properly and timing etc done as perfectly as possible.
Any other parts i should add to my list please comment!
thanks for the help
