Let me know what you think








And this is my daily!

 

looks pretty good.. a different header would help goodluck

 

The header on the EG is staying, it is just my daily for now. The build is going into the Integra. Right now I have a RSR header for the teg but looking to upgrade soon.

 

I would like to know how you are putting OEM pistons on eagle rods and why?

Also cutting the head that far with OEM valve pockets is a No No

 

The head was milled like that before I had the head. OEM GSR are the only pistons that will give me safe enough compression for 93oct

 

Your going to need a thicker than stock head gasket ESP if you plan on running any type of aftermarket cam. milling your head that much pushes out your valves

why stock gsr pistons tho...pr3 pistons will still be cool on 93oct...just good tune thats all...and you trying to go pro 2's on that compression...i say dream on...i'm at like around 12.3:1 comp and i think the pro 2's are little too big...

 

Why eagle rods on stock pistons? , thats pretty pointless

just a thicker HG would of solved that...and if he is so worried about that then Pro 2's in the future...i don't think so...

 

What head gasket would be thicker than OEM? With the set up I have now the compression should be right around 11.5:1. I thought that type of compression was good for Pro2's or is that just for Stage2's? I will be running Type-R cams for a sort while after my motor is together.

Which cams would you suggest or just stay with the Type-R? And also how much of a problem could I have with P/V clearance?

 

If i were you i would just get a Thicker headgasket to compersate for the exact amount taken off the head, Then basically you start back at zero, No guessing where to set the cam timing because the head was milled

 

cometic makes custom HG's you can pick anysize thickness that you want...and 11.5:1 is not recommended by skunk2...they specifically states 12:1 comp or higher for the pro2's...regular stage 2's will be fine...but then again...you might want to clay the motor for p2v cleareance cause i bet you're going to be pretty close to p2v contact with stock pistons...thats a lot of material taken off the head...

 

So would you say I'm safe running with ITR cams with where I'm at, should I still clay it?

 

your going to overcam if you put pro 2's in there. I am running pro 2's in my gsr w/ ctr pistons. If you want cams your better off with ctr or buddy club 3's or some other mild cam. thats just my .02

if your defining your opinion based upon his CR, he still can make power with the cam..**** he can make power with toda D's .. he just wont maximize his power of the cam..
Overcamming is a board term, and CR doesn't really define what cam can and should be used, it just states how much of the cam you can actually use.. for instance.. pro2's IDEALy require 11.8+ CR 12's would be perfect to take full advantage of this cam.. but i've seen this cam in a stock usdm itr motor and it made some serious for a bolt on / cammed stock itr.. you need to figure out where you want your power to be first off, and how much your working with..ideally, what everyone has said is basically your using forged rods with stock cast pistons.. dont do that.. stay oem or go forged.. mixing and matching parts is asking for trouble.. pr3 pistons will be fine.. anything up to 12.3~.5 CR is fine on 93 pump gas..get it tuned and ur fine.. i can vouch, i run 12.0CR on 93 oct pump gas w/o a problem.. for 3 years now... get a cam that performs for you and your motor.. not what SPECS say to get...every motor is different, every bolt on or cam is different you'll make power with anything, just how high your power is, is based upon the combo of parts and tuning involved.

also, did you machine the pistons for use with the clips?

 

I want to know how he plans on using that head with any OEM pistons.
