I think he was saying that the motor wasnt built with 8.5:1 compression, etc.. It was built for a n/a app. Never for FI. Thanks for the props all. Its fun to drive... when I drive it since I havent even started it since the dyno
weird thing about it is my motor being built right now is for a turbo and we are going with flat top pistons. My engine builder was in GM high tech in the Feb 06 issue and he has a forged short block with flat tops and he got 840 rwhp out of it with an ATI procharger using stock compression. He had nothing good to say about dished pistons. We are going with a thicker head gasket, but that is it.
