Squirrel Down

[CorkSport]

I got to pull the engine out of the 2 last night as I am down 14% between cylinder #1 and #3 and #4. #2 is somewhere in the middle.

Not too bad for ~18000 miles which over half were at the track. The cylinder walls look pretty worn and I will pull the #1 piston this weekend to see what the rings look like.

Time for a street prepared overbore/engine build!

This may be a good opportunity to look into having custom rods and pistons made. It would be nice to have at least one vendor IN THE WORLD that has the ability to get these parts made.

It would be nice to see an N/A stroker build on one of these.

Definitely interested in what happened, since I push mine pretty good since it is now basically only a track car.

We pulled #1 and didn't find anything that was screaming failure. Everything just looked a bit worn. I was hoping to get something to point out and say that is the problem there.

Problem; needs more boost.

Problem; needs more boost.

Yes it does!

Any update?

Late to the thread, but what kind of compression and leakdown numbers does that 14% down correspond to?

Survey says?
