Thanks for the advice guys.
SA Boy what pistons did you end up using? I can only get 9A pistons here in SA.
I`m sure your van must run!!
If I go for the 7A, I cant get pistons locally, 7A has Compression height of 33.4mm, 9A has 29.0
I`m keeping my car NA, have spent way too much time and money on the individual throttle setup and exhaust to chuck that out after only doing +-150KM`s.
The 2.0 NM engine only woke up at around 5500rpm and would rev happily to 7000rpm, but wasn't that nice to drive, not enough mid range.
I was going to go with all forged internals, but cannot justify the cost at the moment, if you do forged rods and pistons, then it would be silly not to do a proper valve train too.
