motor build looks sweet, quick question, how come you didn't upgrade any of your internals? or at least freshen them up.

There is no need for an upgrade, stock rods and pistons will hold up to 220hp and this is a number the engine will never see. My goal is to keep it simple and cheap so i decided to work with stock parts where its possible. I just rehoned the bore and put new bearings and skrews in it so thats for refreshing. This combo will raise my compression from stock 9,2:1 to 11,3:1 with stock parts


@iChrist
To get the SIR into my ride i had to cut the upper brakets that are weldet to the domes, weld a new braked in the rear where the backpart combine and welded new hex nuts into the flor.

And thank you for the kind words!

Awesome! I don't suppose you have pics on doing this or know of any build guides on how to do this?

Thanks! Would love to have SIR panels all round.
