The Nappy head was designed to take in a bigger EGR without detonation improving emissions, economy etc. Better than the oppositions same classed donks. C. chamber especially designed to avoid detonation.
The Turbo version made use of this aspect without intercooler for costs & not overshadow more $$$ FJ. Much like the XR6T over the XR8 for Ford. low detonation CC + turbo = good, no turbo = kaka! :)
Achieving 200kw atw doesnt justify the harsh opinions snowballed from others. Feral to name one made me look at the facts again to see why its misundestood.
It looks oldskool, simpler 8v, lighter & allows easier turbo layout than non crossflow setups? Bathurst record no FJ could beat. Facts not opinions.
Seen & hearing what custom EFI setups cost to setup properly by those who are not conversant in computers should be considered. Im keeping an open mind towards Stu`s setup which will perhaps only be 10% less overall than EFI yet 100% savings in fuel. I`ll gladly accept a ride Stu of your tudor beauty, pay for LPG & lunch in next cruise!
Stu cant recall you said your head is mildy ported? You considered a 2nd Z18et head w/ 46mm inlets & porting? How is your twin spark ignition set sequential?
Ruredi you should speak to an engineer or you might as well club reg it if you only plan to drive a 1/3 of the year. Personally I get paranoid parking a treasured classic where I can see it. Even then when I can I want to bust the scone of those who walk past it too close with bags, keys or trolleys. Not healthy way to be unless youre a panelbeater.
