Was thinking about some wiseco pistons, just wondering what kind of piston to wall clearance do they recommend and also is it a high silicone piston or low silicone?

 

I forgot all about this thread.

UPDATE: I made 539 Whp and 5XXft lbs trq on 28psi with 93 and meth. 440 whp on 22psi striaght 93 only.

 

nice how much was invested?

 

To be honest I really dont know. Probably 12-13k.

Dang! Badass dude!

Very nice.. not sure how I missed this thread the first time around. Great pics!

 

Your O2 housing is ten times prettier than the one RNR sent me with a 35R kit. I even sent one back it was so bad and the replacement wasn't much better. You're lucky!

 

I guessing your running the .63 hotside with the 5 bolt housing. Im running the true garret .82 4 bolt housing and it was welded on. I had the .63 on my 3076 though and it looked really good. Do you have pictures of yours?

Your car broke exactly how mine did! I had the same piston and the exact portion of the piston on my motor break. I thought that I may have leaned that particular cylinder out and the excess heat caused the ring end gaps to butt up and break the piston deck off!

 

Were you running alky?

I love projects like these its always worth while to look at all the pictures...awesome job man!!!

 

great pics, good documentation. Love seeing a buildup like this... Nice numbers in the end too

 

No.
