Got carrilo 12.5:1 compression forged pistons and lce forged hbeam rods today now off to the machine shop to have the bores punched put to 94mm 😁 and also install my lce stage 5 valves 40mmexhaust 48mm intake

Holy compression batman!
What octane & cam are you planning on?
Should be pretty sweet if you can tune it right.

[Joel87a]

Ill be running c12 leaded(114)  my cam is a .473 lift 280 duration and 104 degree lobe separation. All of this is getting fed by 45mm side draft carbs

[RedCar]

That'll be a hot rod alright!
Let us know how it works out.

Hoo mama! This is turning out to be one heck of a build.

[Joel87a]

Yeah i know a motor swap would be cheaper,able to run pump gas and potentially make more power. But theres just somthing about a high strung carbd 4cyl...the sound,the smell the looks you get when someone hears your lopey 4cyl at a stoplight and asks if its got a v8 in it and then the look of being puzzled when you say nope just a 38 year old 4cylinder

[twotone_ra64]

I'm all about a unique build!   Definitely wanna see videos when she's all done.

[Joel87a]

Absolutely! Iam hoping i have it all done and race ready this spring,just depends on how fast the machine shop can turn around the block/head

[twotone_ra64]

Sweet! Yeah sometimes that process can take some time, as I understand it.

[Joel87a]

Got the bottom end put together now i gotta semd the head out which may take a few weeks.block work was cheap but the headwork wont be  top ring is gapped at .020 with second ring gapped to .024

[Joel87a]

Got the head back,lce stage 5 valves dual valve springs chromoly retainers and hardened keepers. Also plumbed my intake for nitrous.
