performance mods for 202 help needed

[redrags]

i need some info on what carbys are available for a blue 202 motor (preferably twin triple or twin throat)
also extractors.
and how do you shave a head is it possible on the ol 202s (a link with step by step instructions would be great)
and how much would these cost. would i need to play with the bottom end if i shaved the head on it?
cheers

carbs - tripple sidedraft webbers or SU's. Two barrel downdraft Webber, Holley or the factory blue motor Varajet
yes shaving a 202 head is possible, but unless you have a machine shop, then you'll need to send it to a machine shop. No need to change the bottom end.
Extractors - Genie, Pacemaker etc, most popular brands will make them.

Go the triple 1-3/4" SU's. You really can't beat them for performance. Really run a treat. I've got a set on my VK wagon, and it's a real pleasure and a bit of a scare to drive. lol. Plenty of power and awesome acceleration when I need it. Once you get a set of them, you wonder why you've even bothered with anything else and everything else seems pointless!






Cheers!

i went into the machine shop today he quoted 200 dollars to shave head is this a good price?
if i got the head bored would i need to change any internals?
would su carbies off a grey motor fit? what about off a ford?
is there a major difference between 1-3/4 and 1-1/2?

I think we really need a sticky for 202 performance mods.
In the mean time, this link has some good info: How To Build A High-Performance Holden Six

head work will improve performance by allowing it to flow better while the shave will increase compression n this is good.

Sorry to hijack the thread a bit, but Slayer, what do the triple SU's do for your fuel economy? I know it wouldn't do good things for it, but is really terrible?

thats all ive been told.
can you swap carbies on your own will (as in put the triples on for a weekend then change back to standard for the weekdays) or would this **** them?
