Also: Yes, the pistons are 9.0:1 compression, even with the 1.5mm headgasket....it's a long story....also, neither of the 2 manifolds pictured above are being run on the car. The ones listed are being run. I just haven't had time to update a picture of the motor to show it's current state. The stock SR is getting pulled out this weekend. And the built one will be put in the following weekend. (Friday the 13th...hopefully I'm not jinxed!) After that...it's breaking in the motor...then dyno tuning for some good ol' race gas!

thats a lot of pretty parts, now lets see you make them play nicely with each other.

Are you concerned with the 1mm overbore thinning the sleeves too much?What is the max bore recommended?

Does that mean I'm right? Not by any means...there's only one way to find out now...
