Reverse Head for Mercutio

yeah kudos, for sure

I'd like to see someone on the forum do it, and prelude 3g h22 conversion

there is some efficiency to be had expelling exhaust gasses out the back right?

300hp is alot for a lude, which would cost quite a lot anyway to get that figure NA

300bhp isnt the max you can get from a h22/k20 but fast eddies is on std internals not a built engine i would assume as well that that will be flywheel hp
the majority of the expense isnt in the flipped head it will be in all the associated bits the exhaust and subframe mods tuning and such like

You have to wonder if it is really worth it though. All that custom machining etc... for only 300hp.

That doesn't matter to me. The achievement is the biggest part of it for me, and achieving it in what I consider to be one of the best looking cars available

It will be an achievement to do it but TBH I would rather just buy some Skunk 2 stage 3 cams, higher comp pistons, save that extra 5 grand, and tell myself the extra throttle response isn't worth it

tbh its not an extra 5g the big problem is actually getting it done being the only guy who knows how is in the US i hope to be able to get it done and then possibly copied onto another head
