Is This Right? ( Cam )
K engines should have their valve springs replaced with heavier duty springs over .420" of valve lift. The lift quoted on the card, is how much lift the cam lobe has on it. You multiply that by the ratio of the rocker. Which is the amount the rocker increases the lift that the cam lobe has on it. K engines have a 1:1.5 rocker ratio. Meaning for every .001" of lobe lift. The rocker produces .0015" of valve lift. This cam will give you .441" of valve lift. Which is lucky you replaced your valve springs.

Yep. Just know it as i got the same one in my ute.

Thats your lift @ lobe Multiply 0.294" by 1.5 which is your rocker ratio. That will give you lift @ valve EDIT. 0.294" x 1.5 = 0.441" lift @ the valve.

4K- 4Age Distributor How To.
Go to a local machinist. ask em to make you a brass or steel bush to the dimensions above. Then all you have to do is swap gears and cut the tab off the end that spins a K oil pump. Bush like this

Bahahahaha. Classic Carlos.

4K- 4Age Distributor How To.
The go would be to make a brass bush with something like a 36.1mm OD and 27mm ID. Loctite into 4AGE head. Slip 4K dizzy in. I'm also pretty sure the 4K dizzy clamp works perfect with 1 hole already in the GE head.

4K- 4Age Distributor How To.
I looked into fitting the 4age dizzy into a K block a short time ago. To fit 4K dizzy. Will need a bush for the dizzy to slide into. K dizzy diameter as the I.D and A dizzy diameter as the O.D. (will put up the sizes in a second). EDIT: You need to remove the dizzy drive gear from both distributors. Fit the A dizzy drive gear to the K dizzy shaft. Then trim shaft to the right length. The body of the distributors (from where they sit against the block/head) to the end (where the hardened washer and gear sit against) are the same length. The 4a dizzy's body drops down in size right at the end. You may have to grind/machine the K dizzy the same. Not sure if it was done for clearance of the cam in the 4AGE or for production costs.

I heard they can be engineered, they must not be able to be set below lowest legal height. In SA that's 99% of he time measured from the center of the hub to the wheel arch. Not sure how they'd go interstate.

The fact that an XT130 spring wont fit into a *E7* strut tower. So a spring can be wound the same diameter as the *E7* spring. Then the last coil or 2 is increased in diameter to suit the XT130 lower seat. Thats the best way to go. $300 gets you a HSD kit with Everything you need. All I found was that the spring top hat needs to be drilled out to suit the diameter of the shocker. All of them just come with an 8mm hole. Then you can adjust the height to what ever you want. and change the rate of the springs easy as.
