So there was a mishap at the machine shop with a block for a drag truck build. It is a 12 valve and will stay around 1000-1200hp. +.020 mahle motorsport cast pistons .150" fly cuts, 13mm pump w 5x.025s. Single 80mm charger.. wet motor. Will see the dragstrip and the occasional 10 mile drive to a car show
PTW was to be set at .010"... in the end it wound up at .0135". My question is, go ahead and run it, or will we run into issues. w To much rocking, blowby even with rings set correctly? can this prematurely wear the rings?
Time is a factor here. Cam tunnel is already done. Would rather not start over or sleeve unless absolutely necessary.
Thoughts?
