i wanted more power so i put in my stage 3 blower cams with a 6500rpm rev limiter and started loosing some compression over a couple months...

which isnt too bad compared to breaking a rod or something.

well, ive had a short block sitting in my garage for about 6 months so im installing it instead and shipped my heads out for porting... forged internals shouldnt have a problem with the low boost im running (10lbs)... i just need to get hold of a small pulley for her now..
