Just wanted to add that Darkside tested out a ported head on a customer's GTD with 2260 then 2872. Couldn't get over 286bhp. The CRUA/CUNA is designed with max efficiency, not performance unfortunately. Probably a daunting effort to think of test fitting CUAA head. Would love to see someone try though!The old cr head has capability to reach 290-300 in stock form.
With porting and camshaft it will go over 400hp. Too much of a trouble in swapping heads ..not even sure is possible.
Are you saying the CUAA head could be swapped onto a CRUA given one could be sourced? Not cheap at all for the few I've seen, so maybe not worth the effort.It can be done....but its a drag. The old engines can in fact make excellent power. I really like the CUAA(and have done a ton of research on it), but they are just different enough, that the swap wouldnt be as easy as one would think. Are you looking for a particular benefit that the CUAA offers?
They made 253bhp with GTB2260 and stock fuel pump followed by 286bhp with CP3, headwork, and GTD2872. Both of those turbos are capable of far better on the older motors not to mention the mere 30hp bump with all that extra work. I think that says enough about the head layout being a major limiting factor at play, no?
The valves being located one behind the other vs side by side (when looking from the front) is like Best Buy only opening one door on Black Friday, you're only getting but so many folks in the door.
I'd love to source a CUAA head, but everything I've seen has been a small fortune.
