They are super easy to install. Make sure you use the biggest shot you can. Even still you ain't gonna be able to touch me!

Its more important to have your compression relatively equal across the board, no more than say 8% variance between cylinders. 10% is getting up there but still ok.

Well that's close. Say 99.9% and that 0.01% is I break something or I red light. Count the red light out though because I'd give you the hit.

Thats typicaly the limit with stock internals/ring gap. I wouldn't say no problem though,you still want to have a safe a/f,and timing ,and plugs.

I ran 215hp wet kit on a stock longblock (89 5.0).

I used a multi step retard box and 110 fuel.

Went 12.20s@114 with only pullies long tubes and nitrous.

Not smoking fast but really woke up a stock longblock.

Never hurt anything but not sure how long it would have taken that abuse.

Motor only had 68K on it.

Good luck.

OK SO HERE THEY ARE

#1-131

#2-135

#3-127

#4-134

#5-130

#6-127

#7- 130

#8-125

Are these good enough numbers?
 
Posted by cummins (Member # 5931) on 2007-08-23 06:28 PM :
 
SON, yes those are good enough in terms of being acceptable across the cylinders. But I'm not sure what stock compression is on your car. I assume you ran the test cold? Just that the numbers overall seem a bit low. How many miles on your motor? Hell if your motor is tired, spray the bitch it will wake it up! LOL!!! Just make sure to check your oil often because that shit will get burnt!

Yep your motor is getting a lil tired but its still good enough to spray it. At least its wearing pretty even so that's a good thing. Doing a test cold will yield even lower numbers I was just wondering if you did it cold or hot.

So if you spray this 150 shot how much rwhp total are you looking to get, around 200?
 
Posted by RED@7kVERT *8850GT* (Member # 5909) on 2007-08-23 08:00 PM :
 
if you do a pump just get a 190

plugs. non plat autolites one heat range colder than stock with the appropriate gap.

depending on what kit he uses. you should prolly see a good 100 hp to the wheels...with an assload more tq.

remember! tq = fun! lol

the kit that im getting is rated to the wheels (so they say)... because i still got stock heads its going make alot of toque... there was a guy i was talking to put a 125 shot with the same mods i got making 460 in TQ.. 300 somthing in HP....i agree with you on that TQ= fun [Big Grin]

I had a NX wet kit on my Saleen. I shot a 150 on it and I got literally EXACTLY 150 rwhp BUT I got over 300 ft/lbs. BTW, your compression seems a bit low...at least they're all pretty close. Engine is probably alittle "tired". High octane fuel will become your very best friend if ya want it to last. I run NO LESS than 100 always(usually closer to 110). [patriot]
