knew I shouldn't have reved it so high but the 'red mist' at Winton got the better of me.
Turbo build is now happening a little sooner

How high did you rev it? Stock A15s go to 8500, at least some do.

I found no compression on one of my cyls in my falcon today. Hoping it doesnt have a similar result

pushrods at these rpm are short lived unfortunately.

I wonder if longer rods and shorter pistons would help A15 engines there is a piston
from a Honda bike engine that has 18.9mm compression height and 78mm bores that means
144mm rods are possible in an A15 which puts less stress on components.
