Hey all. I'm having a really hard time to figure this out and make a decision on my ptw and top and bottom ring gaps. I have read about a thousand threads and the posts are everywhere. I would rather ask my own questions and get answers to them. Im running the following:
H1e 58mm same as hx40 8 blade
Running e85
Wiseco 9:1 85.5mm pistons
Eagle h beam rods
ACL race main and rod bearings
Arp mains and rod bolts
Polished crank
6 bolt bottom 7 bolt head
Looking to run 25-30 on the street and 30+ at the track. This is my daily by the way.
So I guess I'm asking what ptw, top ring gap, and bottom ring gap for a daily driving 450-600 hp car.
I don't exactly know if my pistons a coated but they do have the W on the sides with a black background.
I was thinking:
Top: .020
Ptw: .035 so when the black rubs off its closer to .040
Bottom: .022
Des this look right or am I way off?
Any and all suggestions are welcome and hopefully some with close to the same set up can chime in.
