Re: beaterX project thread

Wow that is major suck.

What was compression when you bought it this summer? Any idea what caused this? I cant imagine a shitty tune causing scored cylinder walls. Very odd.

Compression was good when I bought it, ~140 across the board. Some say the rings are gapped too tightly from the factory. Maybe it was detonation. Maybe it was too much awesome.

My goal is to get the head off and verify the boroscope findings this week, then pull everything else this coming weekend (after I recover from Mark's party--friday night). So if you're bored next saturday or sunday and want to get dirty, feel free to stop by. Beer provided after you smash your first fingernail or knuckle
