minishoulders Posted August 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Sounds like a very thorough job. May I ask, how much did you get shaved off the head ? Was it about 20 thou ? (I am looking into some options for my build) Thanks, Um was about 10thou only shaved it because had welding done to it. Compression ratio was 9.7-1 so could have gone higher but don't want it pinking. I must say for the money you could spend on a 4k to get 85hp, your much better off getting a good 5k a do what i did, Id like to see a 4k pull up a hill like my 5k ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
