Hi All,
Would P&P compiled with a top o'haul..plus modding to twin timing chain be worth the trouble at all? Car in questions is a KP61 Starlet.
Thanks Cheers.

how much "trouble" would it be and how much trouble would be enough to make it not worth it?
thats like asking us if you should eat an apple

mmmm apple
I like Pink Ladys their so sweet and juicy.
Whats the engine 3K or 4K? You could do a 3k/4k hybrid engine i did one of these not to long ago with good results. There are plenty of info on these forums so do a search.

twin timing chain will wear less when you have large cam.. but i have never seen a single chain break.
maybe there is no benefit? i would use twin chain with big cam and heavy springs.
exhaust ports are beneficial to port out.. maybe 2mm on walls and roof, but nothing on floor?
intyake ports may not be hugly beneficial, but unshrouding valves is always good
