Nice one Scorpma, thanks for the info… Any suggestions in regards to electric water pumps?? I'd go Davies Craig… but just read over some stuff that warned people away from them… Can anyone confirm their performance or point me towards something better??

Re: 2.6 Power Expectations
Thanks lancer… What compression would be a good target you think 9 to 9.5:1 ??? Also, how far can you bore these blocks??? I've heard people increasing bore / stroke to 2.9L… My aim is torque and reliability. I think standard the wall thickness is 10mm between cylinders…
