J-W-G Posted February 20, 2020 Author Share Posted February 20, 2020 @d.p.n.s yeah im way too lazy when it comes to updating my threads! Just need to work out rod lengths and piston compression heights for the crank. Looking like VQ30DE pistons and RB30 or 8v FE SOHC rods for it to sit at zero deck with about 10:1 compression. Other hand is use 4.1 X-flow pistons and 4.0 EL rods for about 8:1. If i can get a combo to get 9.5:1 or 9:1 then ill be happy as that leaves it open for boost.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valiant Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Fun fact, early valiants aren't 5x114. Looks like there is enough room to redrill them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
