its time i built a motor to handle this buisness (it's kinda funny, normally people do up there motor and blow every other bit of drivetrain, i've done the opposite)
the a12 had a blown head gasket when i got it
the a14 blew the rings
and both the a15's stuffed the rings, i'd like to re-build one of the a15s (one has stock cam and lightened crank, the other just a mild NA street cam)
plan:
1 bar (14-15psi) boost all day every day
questions:
- i'd love to get an a-14 pulsar low comp head if anyone has one? (this will be my way to lower compression)
- what should i do with the head gasket? what material etc etc? i dont want to o-ring though.
- and most importantly as they seem to be the weakest point... rings... what do you do to make them robust for boost?
- and lastly what would be any other weaknesses to engineer out? im sure it can be done with stock pistons and stuff, i dont think i need to get that serious???
