looking to buy a new engine for my set up and in consideration of a few fully built engines I have come across a lil dilema.
1- is a half filled block ok for street driving?
2-is a 11:1 or higher compression too much for pump gas?
3-are alluminum internals like rods etc prone to periodic inspection? if so how long intervals?
I have my eye on this:
12:1 High compression aluminum rod o-ringed motor
Head:
Built by Speed Injected and Cascar
Kiggly behive springs
+1mm valves
Sleeved
H11 ARPs
Block:
Custom Wiseco HD pistons
Groden aluminum rods
FFWD Butchered double knife edged crank
Magnus Girdle
All ARP hardware
King race bearings
Copper O-ring
Can I drive this on street 94 sunoco octane +meth or only c16?
Ive seen similar builds but with half filled blocks and not sure of streetability.
All in all its a weekend car that will see track once or twice a month...
thank you.
