Hi, just a quick set of questions....

Does anybody know at what point you need to pocket the pistons further in terms of valve lift with cams?

What are the standard lifts in/ex?

I am planning on fitting cams with 10.7mm lift in and ex will i run into trouble?

Just for interest, what are the standard valve sizes on the 1242cc 16v?

I have also been looking about for a parts resource other than going to fiat for bits i need for an engine rebuild, anyone know where good quality cheaper parts may be had?

Cheers, Col

Thanks, i have my engine bagged and in bits, just half of it including the head and the valves are in Huddersfield with a friend.....

Cams are from Columbo and Bariani and they should be letting my know....

I have found some pistons and rings for 160 Euro a set from italy here.....
they claim they should do the job....
