WOW! I might buy a couple!
Cast Steel 3.400 Stroke Crankshaft CHP 5.400 I-Beam Connecting Rods Probe SRS Flat top Forged Pistons (STD, .030, or .040) 10.0:1 (w/61cc head and .015 deck) Moly Ring Set, Clevitte 77 Rod and Main Bearings
I would wanna change the pistons to dished and run stock compression with the AFR 185's
Anybody know of smogging issues with the 10.0-1 compression? thats the main reason im worried about the ratio. or maybe you know somebody who can help me out with smog, pm me.
The cast crank is fine, it'll outlast the block [ November 25, 2006, 01:07 PM: Message edited by: Curt ]

10 to 1 wont hurt anything,it actually completes the burn alittle better......Comp ratio doesnt cause smogging issues....

Are honing and prepping your stockblock to install this kit or having a shop do it for you? Let me know how much they charge, I'm looking into getting a rotating assembly as well.

Don't forget boring (if going .xx over), honing, and balancing as well.

yeah that to, basicly your just getting the rotating assembly. and you have another $1k-$2k worth of machining work.
