Yea it was just dry test, underpowered tho. Suppose to be low comp pistons. Head looks mint and cvh34 cam is the cleanest I have seen as we know they love eating cams. Lifters are fine.
All I can think is...
Head skimmed to much?
The bottom end had three pistons put in but the old block was used and has score marks down the chamber, don't know if this will effect the comp.
Don't really want to go and chuck his engine over this as it runs nice just wants it's full power
