    Just had a look at my collection of "notes" on the hard drive - apparently, you can move from 38-41mm on the inlet side of an 8v and the exhaust is ideal at 80% of the intake size, so nearly 33mm, which is apparently what the exhaust side is as standard. Straight out of an BRM Motorsport book so is surely pretty spot on

    My suggestions are as follows
    More headwork porting flowing 40mm inlet, 35 exhaust valves
    Tuned extractors to suit (torque or revs)
    Blueprinting
    Big cam and adjustable gear
    Improve fueling , bigger throttle body cold air intake.Adjustable fuel pressure regulator.
    Balance bottom end .
    I would hope you already have a windage tray.

    Sound advice

    Sound advice, Golfwise...Particularly the balancing of the bottom end. Essential if you intend to rev hard. Harmonic balancer/pulley to pressure plate recommended.
