STVR6 0 Posted December 29, 2009 Thanks for your comments so far in newbie section, as for getting pics on, i get it back next friday so will get some on here. As for the timing chaines.. if all looks ok, and it certinly sounds ok with no clattering noices etc theres no need to change..right ? Also as im doing schimmel 263 cams,k&n, full system,288 fronts i was thinking bout geting a performance clutch fitted, is this good idea or best to leave it untill chaines need doing ? If so any recommended clutch kits ? Lastly to go with my full system, hi flow sports cat etc, well im doing it for not alot more i can have a fast flow staniless manifold... is this worth doing well the works being done..? Thanks for the help so far, scott. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STVR6 0 Posted December 29, 2009 Im also just about to order leads and plugs so just after your views are these a good choice or can you recomend better..im going for K1 performance ht leads, and NGK Iridium Spark Plugs, both new. thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted December 30, 2009 Your current clutch will be fine with those mods. If you have to have an upgraded one, wait until you get the chains done ;) I would go for the manifold- will work well with the other mods, but don't expect miracles. It will sound good too, but make sure you wrap it well before fitting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
