Frans, does the lack stem seal make for a smokey motor, and does it lead to oil contamination on the back of the valve?
Hi All
The 807 series of engines does not have valve stem seals.

Hi All,
Info lost last year was very important regarding lobes and followers that destroy themself as soon as you increase valve spring pressures and fit a hot cam. Regards

"Frans" can you possibly tell me the conrod length c-c & width at BE?
Cant find this info anywhere and no engine atm in my reach.
Also need the Height of the block from crank centre to deck top?
Im trying to work out the rod stroke ratio of the 807 engines.
Engine height (crank centre to deck) = ?
Conrod length= 135.5 136.3 or 136.4mm?
Piston comp height= 40.5 or 42mm?
Conrod BE width= 27mm?
Im really enjoying this thread with detailed pics. The turbo rods are beautifully strong!
My only confusion is the first page has head pics of a wedge motor not hemi crossflow.
Is that just to illustrate your techniques and tools?
here are some specs dug up from wayback machine as site is no longer hosted
