Hydro's replacing for mechanical tappets

Hey!
These are From Peter Kowatsch PK-Motorsport.de
The RPM's are limited because of the stroke..you can go to 8500/min maximum, but all components must be fine balanced an weight optimized..

Hi,

I Talked to PKM, He told me that there has to be done some head work. Mainly plug the oil feeds for the hydro's and to drill new oil holes somewhere else..... But why should this be done?

If you replace the Hydro's with the mechanical tappets the oil hole in the tappet itself will probably be closed. So the oil doesn't flow in the tappet itself (normally to pressurise the hydrolic chamber). Thus will mean the holes in the cilinder head can be remained only to lubricate the tappet guiding chamber and the tappet for smooth guidance and travel.
He also told me that the cams should be changed for different ones with another profile.....

Any thoughts on this are very welcome

Hi,
Mechanical tapped request "mechanical" camshafts profile, you can "reprofile" stock camshafts.
You should change adapt you oil pump.

You can inspire in S6plus with "mechanical" cam.
