Hi guys, looking to order up the parts for my new engine build, but wanted to rack the brains of the guru's before I do.
Here's my current set up:
KTR - Level 3 gas flowed head.
Uprated head gasket set and bolts.
KTR uprated cam.
Group N Clutch.
Lightened Flywheel.
KTR alloy intercooler, group A carb, group A dump valve, induction kit, in-car boost kit.
Hi output starter motor.
Samco hoses
Garrett T2 Turbo
Scorpion Exhaust
The car was running 20psi all the time and never gave me any issues. The main reason for the rebuild is to refresh the bottom-end.... and here's my question........
Would it be ok to fit forged pistons, but not the forged con-rods and steel liners to run 25+ psi?? I know this sounds a bit 'bodge', but there's a massive price difference and TBH, I only want to run a bit more power than what it was before.
Any help would be appreciated.
