The problem I have with stock starters is they work great for a year then get to slow to turn the engine over when it is hot

12.5:1 with the Corvette starter (smaller + gear reduction). Works great and sounds good.

I am at 12.3:1 using an LT4 starter. Works fine. I am about to lower my CR to 11.5:1
He's lowering his compression so I can get even DEEPER in that ***.....

I'm thinking the stripes on your car should be yellow.... just like the one down your back...

sorry for the hijack but every once in awhile me and Shep have to let out stress on each other...

That hood on your car sits so high because you have the little peepee syndrome.

We need to stop hyjacking this and start a new trash talking thread! Sorry about that!

yeah.... +1....

you guys with avgas and 2 stroke oil are begging to blow your motors up.....

If you're that unsure of what fuel to use just pour 1 ounce of chuck norris' urine into a full tank of gas.....

effectively raises the octane to somewhere in the 300's...... LOL
