Can you explain what Stage1/2/3 heads actually mean ?
Absolutely fk all with out flow numbers1 = In/Ex port tidy up....some think this is polishing but its more about shape....the polish comes as a result of the kit used to get the shape and repeat the size/shape consistantly. Sized and matched chambers. Would normally include bullet guides. Skim for desired CR.
2 = Stg 1 plus bigger inlet valves.
3 = Stg 2 plus bigger exhaust valves. (if there is room, or best size combo for the space)
Options on top of these are different/double springs, compound angled valve seats and matched ports to manifolds.

You would be quite happy with my engine in your car !Be a poor show if there wasn't such an improvement.

Please note everyone, a prominent Griff owner has just admitted (in public) that he'd be impressed by a Chimaera
Wasn't he implying to be impressed by only the engine ?RichardD said:
