need some advice (building my motor up)
ok, so i am rebuilding my b18b. i am going to be putting SRP 8.8:1 or 8.4:1 pistons(havnt decided) darton sleeves and tuner toys h-beam rods. plus a guard block. my question is, how much horsepower do you think that setup will hold? i might be thinking about nitrous in the future, so keep that in mind. so what comp ratio should i go with. 8.4 or 8.1, i want to run somwhere around 20-25psi SAFELY on crome. is this possible? thanks guys
and if you have a setup that you have done in the past like this, post up what you used and what you accomplished with it! THANKS!!

and as to running 20-25 psi is fine on either 8
or 8:1, just use a good tune, i would prolly even go a little higher but you gotta choose what u want you might want to do a little more research before commiting to this project

i thought a block gaurd was just extra support for the sleeves. I dont want to spend BIG BUCKS, and thats why i am choosing to go SRP and tuner toys. whats the matter with there stuff? I would like to make UNDER OR AROUND 500hp. I think that that 450 is a Goal to reach. I am thinking of just going with 8.0:1, thats a pretty good compression ratio for my wantings right?
