Default Re: SCR18 Deuce build Detroit Muscle

1/16-1/16-3/16" rings?

I just ran this through PipeMax (had to guess on LSA and ICL, went with 110° just as a WAG), it showed 108% v.e. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

That's a lot of meat to take out of those heads--I don't envy you there. (I can almost smell the cast iron!)

Have you ever tried a 2.055&quot; with a relief at the top of the bore? I wanted to try this on my 302, but it's so hard to keep compression in these tiny engines, I didn't want to cut that big of a relief in the chamber and on the block. I probably would've lost close to a full point of compression.

Again, that's a kick-ass little build you've got there. Can't wait to see what it runs. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/[/img]
