Cams

  • 768cc 8V- 38hp
    • This is the cam found in the Panda mk1 750, it was not tested.
  • 999cc 8V- 45hp (base cam)
    • This is the cam found in the Panda mk1/Uno, it was the cam used for the base map.
  • 999cc 8V- 55hp (4X4 cam)
    • This is the cam found in the Panda mk1 4X4, it produced 10hp over base.
  • 1108cc 8V- 55hp (SPI)
    • This is the cam found in the Punto 55 mk1, it produced 4.6hp over base.
  • 1108cc 8V- 65hp (MPI)
    • This is the cam used in the  Seicento mk2, it produced 13.6hp over base.
  • 1242cc 8V- 60hp (mk1 SPI/mk2 MPI)
    • This is the cam used in the Punto 60 mk1, it produced 2.5hp over base.
  • 1242cc 8V- 75hp (MPI)
    • This is the cam used in the Punto 75 mk1*, it produced 15.4hp over base.

Note: These tests were performed on a stock 999cc SPI engine (fresh rebuild with complete break in), results on other engines may vary.

* There is no mk2 Punto 75, the mk2 engine is MPI but only produces ~60hp.


Heads

  • 768cc 8V
    • I do not have access to this head for testing yet.
  • 999cc 8V
    • This head is very restrictive and can be improved on with mild porting. Intake valves are 30mm and exhaust are 27mm. Flowbench testing indicated flow for 200hp.
  • 1108cc 8V
    • This head flows much better then the 999 head and can be improved further with porting.
  • 1242cc 8V SPI
    • This is the same head as the 1108cc 8V.
  • 1242cc 8V MPI
    • This is the best flowing head on the 8V engines and can still be improved on with porting. Testing of the stock head indicated flow for 250hp, flowbench testing on my ported head  indicated flow for 350+hp but I doubt anyone can get a FIRE engine to these power levels without a large investment..

 

Note: Flowbench testing was done on the stock head with no porting or polishing.

All heads are interchangeable except on to the 768cc because the valves will hit the sides of the bore.
