"Together with the Holbay camshaft and the correct Webers and right air filter (look up! the carb set-up is very sensitive to the air filter) you get a torque engine. Its not a high RPM engine! This

What I meant was: This is not a racing engine, it's more torque then you would Remember that the Hunter GLS or Rapier H120 engine is a detuned engine. The original (around 125bhp) was considered to "

Well, what you are describing is what Rootes did to the Holbay engine, and exactly what I was saying. You are giving up on high end power for low end power. Nothing is free in this balance. Remember,

Jay and piners. The holbay H120 engine is a paradox. The published cam timing data would suggest that it is a higher RPM engine due to its overlap and duration, only that it also has a lot of cam adv

<< My point is still that throwing on the Holbay head, cam and Webers does not make the Alpine a low rpm torque puller - and a 3.7 rear end could cause too much lugging on the engine. Remember that J

What is the ratio of the Alpine's rocker arm? Is it 1.5:1 or about 1.35:1 or something? Do you have some Alpine cam profile data that you would like to share? I have done some research on various ca

The rocker arm ratios vary "as measured" from 1.28 to 1.35 depending on the level of drunken-ness of the worker that made them. I cherry pick mine. I have ground 3 cams. Dont have the specs in fron

It is my understanding that Rootes contracted with Holbay to produce a performance version of the fastback Alpine. The prototype that was delivered to Rootes was very fast but had lousy low end perfo

It's a good idea to use the standard head to work on. The Holbay ports are not exactly "polished" but the sharp edge in the inlet close to the valve is taken away and it is smother. The exhaust on th
