hey guys

this has probably been asked more than a thousand times, but i just need to calrify a few things about the 4k motor.

now, i want to do it up, make hopefully anywhere between 80-100Hp.

now things i am aiming for is, a cam regrind, 3k head with a bit of porting, extractors, exhaust system, upgraded carby (probably from a gemini, still using downdraft style tho) and cold air induction.

firstly, what does everyone suggest as a cam profile, and with what company( i was thinking tighe cams) tighe cams have 2 that i have in mind. one is the Tighe 113, and the other is the Tighe 104. Now on their site its says valves wil need to be replaced with anything over 0.400. the 104 profile has 0.423. so i dont want to have to change springs.
this regrind i think costs about $80-90

secondly, for a 3k head, what shuld i be looking for? the bigport one? not so sure on what wil be best. i wil probably also get it ported, anyone know wat that wuld cost? also, cus ill be putting the 3k head on the 4k block, it ups the compression to 10:1, so what gasket do u guys recommend(and cost)? and shuld i get the hed shaved or anything?

next is extractors. ill probably get some custom made ones from my exhaust shop. in mild steel tho cus i wont have the car for years on end, so a bit of rust dusnt bother me. shuld i get them made 4-1 or 4-2-1? and what diameter of tubing is recomended? and wat wuld this roughly cost? for exhaust system, ill probably have 2inch madrel mild steel, with a hotdog (or 2) and cannon. cost on the exhaust?

lastly for the carby. i have read of people usuing the gemini nikki carby on the 4k. almost bolt on job. anyone have pros or cons for these?

love to hear your answers.
thanx crew
