9.0 Compression .5mm over. They only make them in one compression so I left out the details. I replaced the wrist pins with Diamond Racing pins. I also dropped them off yesterday to have the dome and skirts coated. I'll upload more pictures today of the results.

Alright kids. Things are moving along with the quickness. Picked up the pistons and dropped them off with the Block, Rods, Rings, Bearings, Mains, Crank and hardware.

These sons of bitches are pretty:

Was this car on ebay a few years ago? I almost bought it.

Send the Clevite bearings back and get ACL. :)

Clevites have always been my bearing of choice. Never had an issue in my Honda motors spinning 9k+ rpm. Why do you suggest ACL over Clevite?

Suspected so. Just wanted to hear bad news about Clevites if it existed.
