Hello-
I just ordered a timing chain kit from engnbldr. Today I will be ordering an OEM head from him with the RV street cam and RV valve springs. For anyone who has done this to their 22RE, did you notice a significant power increase?

 

On a 22R, ported intake side, engnbldr SS valves, RV cam, weber, header, the increase was significant over a worn stock engine.. Much easier to hold speed on the highway.

Search for Ted's post - he's providing parts that build engine potential.
One dyno run of a rebuilt motor on his parts:

It's pretty significant actually...

But keep in mind its still the same 22re, it just works better. My head isn't from him but it has his valves and springs in it, and a Crane Stage 2 cam which should be comparable to what you're getting.

Mine didn't really make me happy though until I did the exhaust.

 

Yea, that's what I was thinking the case may be. I guess the biggest increase in power will be the built head AND header together.

 

i have the street RV head with LCE header and its still slow with the 33's
