  1. I'm driving around seattle in my 240, down lake city way. My girlfriend is in her underwear (sweet), and we're just driving to my place.....

     

    we're gonna need pics to verify the viability of this story.

     

     

    haha, seriously tho, good job on not getting a ticket

  2. I think the stock CR is 8.5:1 with flat tops and that head. the 2mm HKS head gasket will lower the CR to 8.2:1. and you should be able to rund stock boost no problem just watch your timing and fuel. and If you intercool and you use an after market computer you can get away with a good amount of boost. There are lots of guys running 8.5:1 CR under boost.... besides, what the worst that can happen.:shock:

     

    i don't think that's right..... i think that's the CR for the dished pistons.

     

    at any rate, if my F54 block is cracked, i have a dished block that i would gladly trade for your F54!

  3. ^mack, that's what i was going to say. these figures are apples and oranges. the difference between which accessories, etc, are on which will cause fluctuation. if we know the weight of these accessories (a lot easier to find than the weight of the blocks) then we can come up with accurate comparison figures.

  4. ya, what head are you running and which pistons?

     

    where are you in san diego?

     

     

    oh, and run the lowest octane without pinging for optimum performance

  5. i don't know his name; he is/was a member on classiczcars.com. VERYCLEAN CAR! i must repeat VERYCLEAN CAR! he made all of the fiberglass molds himself, and i happen to have the molds sitting in my backyard (was moving, couldn't store them.... "sure, i'll take 'em off your hands!")

     

    he braced it very well to counteract the force of no roof. the flares on the fenders are very smooth and subtle. i believe it has a miata top on it

  6. i currently have the velocirty stacks under k&n filters. i would gladly sell the k&n air cleaner assemblies and go with my future plans, but i think i'll be the nice guy and tell you about my setup so that you may get a better one to start out with.

     

    i plan on doing an air box similar to the stock one, except have it duct air from in front of the radiator support through a cone type k&n to get cold air in instead of sucking in the hot engine bay air.
