Ya I'm learning the hard way block is board to 87 mm so now I'm just going to learn from my mistakes. I have a nice clean motor that is in the car at the moment that I can make my big hp build guess I'll learn from this from this build. But I will make this one a 500 build and learn as I go.

Your block is not bored to 87mm :)

Biggest probe makes is .40 over which is 84mm

IBoughtASupra: I build probably on average 3 motors a week, I own a bore gauge and a full set of micrometers, the p2w will be checked, it's a fully blueprinted motor I'm putting together

Good to know.

Ever figured out why you broke that ring land on your last motor?

Well the AFR's were fine, we were watching knk and there was none present. I can garantee what broke the ring land was the fact that I was running non turbo NPR pistons (not performance rated) which stock are 9.2:1, I had the block and head shaved so much and ran a 1.2 head gasket which yielded me at 9.8:1 plus 20 lbs the cast pistons just couldn't handle the cylinder pressures. I got the injectors flow tested and they checked out perfect.
