RE: [DML] Cams

["Marc A. Levy" <malevy@xxxx>]

I have been spending a lot of time investigating all of the performance
PRV-V6 motors, and this is a turbocharged motor. The performance tune
on this motor is from the addition of a turbo. The pistons are lower
compression than the DeLorean, so they can increase the boost over what
our aftermarket DeLorean kits are limited too.

Although I do not have details on the differences between the A610 cam's
and the DeLorean, I dont think this swap will be any improvement..


The A610 is rare, and I was in the process of trying to purchase and
import one of the motors. Most of the leads I got with claims of a
A610 motor were actually A310 Turbo, or other similar renault turbo
engines. On closer inspection, the configuration of those motors will
not fit in the DeLorean without heavy modification to the turbo
plumbing.

Sad things is, Most of the high performance cars that used the PRV-V6
motors are considered rare.

In 1995 Renault produced about 2500 "A610's"- rear
engined with a modified PRV6. It was equipped with
a Garrett T-3 turbocharger and produced 250 hp. I
would assume that it had a "performance" cam and that
such cam might very well work in the D engine. Anyone
know anymore about this?
