That's amazing value isn't it? Looks nice, but the only advantage I can see over the SC 7 port is that it is built for a 998 and therefore no pockets. http://www.twin-turbo.co.uk

You'll also notice, unlike the Arden and Westlake it uses 5-port cams.

He mentions fitting a zetec thermostat/housing to the CNC'd head, not a zetec head Edited by steve w on 15th May, 2012. This is FORD country, on a quiet day you can hear Vauxhalls rusting. |

Looking at this more the compromise in the design id the exhaust ports.
