This next upgrade changes from hydraulic to solid followers requiring double valve springs, new caps & platforms. This allows a better choice of camshafts, which can cope with higher revs. The MBE Ecu comes complete with a program allow you to be ready to run immediately.

Due to the increased lift, the standard pistons & rods must be replaced with Omega high compression pistons and steel rods.

Additionally you may wish to consider the installation of a dry sump system for added protection, unless your class rules prevent it.
