Should't like any of those CNC heads flow enough for 300hp turbo setup?

Re: "Reliable" 300hp Type 1, possible?
Ok but 1st i have to say it was built with mainly what I had laying around leftover from other projects as its a budget build so if i was building something to meet Villemil's needs it wouldn't be the same.
2332 in a mag case, yes EFI[ i wouldn't build something turbo to be used daily if it wasn't] and water/air intercooled, single 75mm TB, 1 5/8 header, older garrett t3/4

I was figuring it was for a cnc head but not 100% sure, as for engine size, well if I was to choose any size based on his simple 300hp streetable requirements i would recommend going 74x101.6, but also remembering I said i wouldn't use thickwall cylinders anything 92mm bore is a non starterbuguy wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 3:18 pmMy apology for the confusion. I figured most were recommending something in the 78x92 - 78x94 range. So if we are talking in the 82x90.5 range would the suggestion be much different?
Here is where I saw the 136cc port volume. That may only be for the CNC version. I don't see a specific port volume on the non cnc.

My own real world example is a 2332 so was basing it off that as I think it works pretty dam well whatever port work and size it has

Re: "Reliable" 300hp Type 1, possible?
Fair enough. Keep in mind, all we ever hear is "keep the port volume small to keep air speed up". Pat at CB recommended to me (for a street car) the wedge port heads on a 82x94 because they have a 76cc port volume but still flow fairly well. So when i see a port volume of 136cc you can understand my confusion.richie,uk wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 3:46 pmI was figuring it was for a cnc head but not 100% sure, as for engine size, well if I was to choose any size based on his simple 300hp streetable requirements i would recommend going 74x101.6, but also remembering I said i wouldn't use thickwall cylinders anything 92mm bore is a non starterbuguy wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 3:18 pmMy apology for the confusion.

I was thinking on starting a youtube channel and start making weekly vlogs from my journey on building this car. Would you guys be interested?
