ST200/ST24 2.5 engine

[mgbond]

Does anyone know what car the 2.5 engine comes from, looking at getting some magnecore leads and they have them for a ST200 and an ST24 but they are both 2.5V6 Duratec 24v. They have them as different codes?

Cheers,

That will be for the St200 then, why didn't you go for the KV85 ones?

Seems odd, as in terms of HT leads there was no difference.

Over the ST24, the ST200 engine has; extrude honed upper & lower inlet manifolds, larger diameter throttle body, heads are extrude honed on the inlets, cams are lighter (hollow), but they are same profile and lift but different duration. Pistons are different resulting in higher comp ratio and are lighter. Rods are sintered, crank is "specially selected" and it has a lighter flywheel. :geek:

Would you notice anything better with the 8mm over the std ones.

I'm running anbout 350bhp on a 2.5 and have been told its worth getting some new leads. Also I've been told it maybe a good idea to look at going to single coils rather than the coil pack that is on the 2.5 (the 3lts has single coils).
