Re: Please help me learn to do timing on G63B!!

It's a lot of instructions for someone to write down, head to a library and see if they have a workshop manual or try everyone's best friend google, that info has to be on the web somewhere. But a basic starting point should be fuel, which you said you checked. Air, which shouldn't be blocked if it ...

Has anyone fitted a front lip to an LA lancer?
If so what was it originally off? Was thinking rx3 would work

Re: 4g32 double valve springs

Yeah, it's a budget build.. Already have the no.5 sitting here, there is a no.3 in the engine already as far as I know so I may just leave that one in anyway, still undecided. Pretty keen to run the no5 though.
Do you know if chain and belt drive valve springs are the same?

I had already thought of that Dave, I am looking down both avenues, will probably end up using more solid singles, it's only gonna be a street/motorkhana car, not a full rally beast like the LB

Re: How much over standard piston can I go

They are .5mm oversize 4g35 high comp pistons.
Don't remember the rest of the exact numbers, I think it makes it about 1850 or so? Don't quote me on that though
