i have a 92 acura legend... This summer i am going to be doing some internal work to get it ready for forced induction.. I am going to go with custom foged wiseco pistons, custom crower forged rods, valve springs, 2 angle valves, and titanium retainers. Are these good products? what brand of cam is the best to go with? What other things should i do while i am doing my internal work?

heres what i am doing
low comp pistons
rods
valves
valve springs
cam
cam gears
port and polishin everything
enlargin heads
toda timing belt
port/gasket matched heads
level 10 trans upgrade
SAFC II

Is there anyhting i am missing? i would rather do everything now so i dont have to come back to this later.. whats a good cam?

thanks everyone!

two things
what is head enlargement and what is a "level 10 tranny upgrade"

 

I h ad some head enlargement the other day with a woman, does that count?

 

i think by head enlargement he means port work, i wouldnt use wiseco pistons i'd use cp i feel they are far superior of a product and better quality, and level 10 is a company that does tranny upgrades. dont forget new ebaring water pump and oil pump.

 

well level 10 makes torque converters
since when do they make transmissions


and if you look at his list of mods directly above "enlargin heads" it says "port and polishin everything"

 

they dont just make torque converters they did a big article in turbo like 2 years ago all baout auto tranny's and i never said they make tranny's and i said i think he means

 

yes i mean a torque converter... sry for the mixup.. and with the enlarging head i mean porting and polishin... sry bout that! also... crower said they wont make tehy valve springs and titanium retainers... they will only make the valves and rods... what kinda cam shud i get? what valve springs shud i get? what titanium retainers shud i get?

thanks for ur help so far and in the future

 

to be honest im not aware of antybody who amkes anyhting for that engine but try manley, or any of the otehr big manufaturers

 

i kno no ppl make stufff for it... its all custom... but most places can make them custom

 

anyone??

who makes a good cam?
who makes good titanium valve springs?
who makes good titanium retainers?

 

try rocket motorsports

 

i would probably leave the stock cam and look into maybe over-sized stainless steel valves for a high power turbo setup.

its gonna be hard to find specific valve-train components for that engine. valve springs and retainers.........good luck i wouldn't be surprised if no one makes those.

BUT if you really want a simple answer to which ones to use and "might" work in that engine why not look at the NSX valve springs and retainers. the NSX V6 can spin to over 8000rpm so those valve springs might actually work (but don't quote me on that)

good luck

 

thanks

who makes good valves also?
