I would prefer slightly higher compression, but I can deal with 7.8:1 I guess, maybe mill the head a bit to bring it closer to 8:1, but if the rods are the same.....turbo pistons here I come, I'll definately get rid of the balance shafts, I used clevite77 bearings(speaking of which I have a set for a small block ford(289 or 302, aka 5.0) laying around if anyone wants them, federal mogul rod bearings too) in my old mustang and loved them, probably use them in this one too, how much do the turbo pistons cost by the way? I dont think I'm going to bother with the oil squirters, just seems like that would rob power, having to move through a mist of oil, the theory behind a windage tray there, speaking of which, does anyone make a windage tray for our cars, anyway, thanks Taboo, you answered my questions
