Something fell out of my Jeep today...

Left a big hole, too....

new transmission to follow, and who knows what else....

 

I hate when stuff falls out, but in your case, it is a GOOD fall out. hehe

 

Very good indeed!

 

Well its about time!! You are knocking on the door, this should do it!! What else you getting done?

 

Well your gas mileage will pick up a bunch and your et n mph will also increase but your going to wear out your shoes peddeling it now lol.

 

nice........

 

It scares the heck outta me to see one torn apart like that!!! Best of luck gettin' all your goodies and puttener back together!!!

 

Not sure what else, maybe compression change? maybe just tranny. :shifty:

Yeah, I'm getting a lot of foot rubs from Wilma these days.

 

Nice George, you have been just a tranny away from 10's until now.

 

How are you changing compression mill/gasket?...lower or higher? I would assume lower and run more boost, but i hate to assume anything with Eddie being involved.

 

O man I cant wait to see

 

maybe slightly bit lower and boost a little bit more. depends on piston selection.

 

If you want slightly bit lower, just get a thicker head gasket.

 

Looked at MLS cometics in varying thickness. Wondering about minute changes in geometry with thicker gaskets and what if anything that does to the whole cam/pushrod/rocker/valve motion. Maybe not too much, but figured I'd see what's available in piston size to achieve compression relief. May keep it 10.3.

 

Are you keeping the same cam or changing that up as well?

 

Keeping the same one. Its been nice with the blower after 4000 rpms.

 

Going from .040 to .060 or w/e you choose isn't going to mess with the geometry of the valve train to much. I would sure try that before spending 1k on pistons. At 10.3, you should be okay at 10 PSI with proper tune.

 

I was thinking the .082, i think that's the thickness. Its a good opportunity to upgrade and change rings, but yes, not the cheapest.

 

Gotcha...Keep us posted.

 

Pony express dropped off a box today.... Maybe I can start filling that hole in my engine bay now...Thanks to SHR and Arrington for such a quick turnaround on the new Mahle pistons. Dookie, nice to speak with you. Thanks in advance for the belts.
