Whilst searching the forum I came across this.

What is the point ? Does it increase HP ?

Thanks

I heard its the same head...
 
Oh ok then there's no point really.

I was just thinking of buying a skimmed head on eBay as they are only £40 inc postage. Rather then get mine skimmed. (if my HG is blown)

They are selling both the 1.2 & 1.1 heads for the same price.

So if it was any improvement I'd go with the 1.2 head.
 
do they say which engines they have come off, cos like i say the puntos before 1997 had smaller inlet valves.

no point buying one really though.. just get urs skimmed, its cheaper
 
Arg.

Can't find the auction anymore...

I think i saved it in my bookmarks at home.
 
1108 cinq engine (176.B2): Inlet 31.5mm
1108 punto engine (176.A6): Inlet 30.5mm
1242 punto engine (176.A7): Inet 30.5mm
1242 punto engine (176.B4): Inlet 31.5mm

all use 27.5mm exhaust valves.

hth
 
i dunno about the 1108, or the mk2 punto MPI's but the 1242 MPI (punto75 engine), 176.A8 has 31.5mm inlet valves.

but M@nticore has an uno.. which will be SPI, so i assumed he'd only want the SPI's valve sizes!
