building for boost question
hey guys a quick question.. im going to bore my gsr to 81.5mm and just do a basic rebuild using weisco pistons and pauter rodds.. im wonderous how low of c.r. should i go to run around 15 pounds?
ive seen inlinepro just use oe blocks with their 2mm headgasket and boosted that way to around 325hp.. im looking for around 350.. i was thinking 9.5:1 may be low enough.. or should i run 9.0:1 instead to be safe?
i was gonna stay n/a and sleeve to 84.5mm and build a head but i will spend 2x the money going that route.. i found a place localy that will do the stock rebuild for 1800 with weisco and pauter.. not bad at all i dont think.. i figure just rebuilding and pcing together a decent kit will be much less.. laskey is asking 3450 just for the short block sleeved and built.. thats my rebuild and half my kit..
thanks for the info
