I am a bit worried as I have heard bad things about accralite pistons, This is a fresh build using a new block and crank, both standard but like I say new. Will this engine spec be good and strong for running about 16psi??? Are the pec rods less quality to the farndon ones??
any advice would be great
its not so much the boost its how well its mapped as well i wouldent worry about the pistons as long as they are in good condition you should not fined then a problem have u had a zvh or zetec turbo built as for boost im running that on standard rods if you are useing a new unground crank as you say with them rods i would say you could run any think up to 25psi but agan its all down to how well its set up what car is it going in?
