346 370 402 408 whichever way you go sell your kit get a solid motor and grab one of Josh's custom kits

A 370/408 with twin TC72-76s sounds nice to me.... Last time we talked the kit was only 5800 shipped 100%complete

or a simple single S91 would make for a nice ride....

What rings do you have? Like ryne said running straight meth will do the job, But you will need huge injectors and more of them Just get bigger cc chamber heads to lower the compression a bit. Use those twins jose.

And if you do run straight meth, Forget about a cooling system, throw it away if your car is a race car only.

Just don't start smoking meth jose, or you might get more crazy ideas and start a new project.

Here is a picture of the combustion chamber, not a scratch. And the peice was nowhere to be found, plus it would be impossible for it to escape through the valve.
