i was putting my block together last night when i found my pistons were hitting
my oil squirters. i am running forged wisecos with stock connecting rods. should i just plug off the taps for the squirters, or is there some way to modify them to fit with the pistons in there?

 

Big Teggie plugged his and did a killer job. You might wanna hit him up for more info if you like.

 

i was thinkin of just gettin a quarter inch or so washer, then putting the bolt back in.
i was just wondering if i can safely rev to 8500 or 9000 with them plugged even though i have forged pistons.

 

I've built LSVTEC's with no oil squirters driven by teen-ager's and seen no ill effects of not running the squiters.

 

if you were sticking with OEM/OEM replacements pistons then Id say keep 'em... theyre not really needed with forged pistons

 

thanks...i'll just plug em.

 

wow this is a trip to know

 

check Tbone's set up i think he just bent his a little hit him up and see but like rocket said you could block them off
