v-6 upgrades? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

I have a 3.2 v-6 laying around. Has anyone tried decking the block and shaving the heads to up the comp on these? How about regrinding the cams? I need to weigh it and find out if I can get some power for a lightweight comp engine.

There is a guy over on the 4x4Wire Isuzu boards that had his cams reground by Delta Cams (Tacoma, Wa). I don't think he ever got it running again. I believe it bolted up, but there was a bottom end problem that caused him to just drop in a new motor.

I am sure if you pop over there, he will surface (and may be willing to sell the cams/heads).

Good Luck,
Michael
