I'M PLANNING TO OVERHAUL THE ENGINE ON MY 1200 GX (A12)
I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO MAKE THIS ENGINE PERFORM AS STRONG AS POSSIBLE.DONT WANT A BIGGER ENGINE JUST A WELL TUNED 1200 , I ALSO WANT TO RETAIN THE ORIGINAL SU CARB SETUP.
I AM THINKING OF HAVING THE HEAD PROPERLY GASFLOWED, WITH EXTRACTORS TO SUIT WITH 2" FREEFLOW EXHAUST.AND I PRESUME A REASONABLE CAMSHAFT UPGRADE.
MY QUESTIONS ARE:
1) - IS THIS SETUP OPTIMAL FOR MAXIMUM POWER .
2) - TO WHAT DEGREE SHOULD THE CAM BE CUT TO MAKE IT PERFORM WELL BUT STILL MAINTAIN ENOUGH LOW DOWN TORQUE TO DRIVE EASY.
3) - IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE WORTHWILE TO DO LIKE UPGRADING THE COIL ETC.
I REALLY DO APPRECIATE YOU GUYS COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS.
THANKS
PITBULL
PS! I'M NOT SHOUTING, I JUST PREFER TYPING (EXTREMELY SLOW) IN CAPITAL LETTERS
