Xr6_ute is running an atomic built motor , I would say e85 might save it a bit but the rods really are a major weakness

Wasn't sure, thanks spinr

answering the original q its been done enough times to know it can be done far from impossiable especially with the e85 being more avaliable to the average joe

I wouldnt bother trying it. Rod lets go and puts oil under your rears....not worth it IMO.

I just went 11.2 on the std motor (100oct) and got it built so I didn't have to worry about it going bang, as this is my only car and I use it for work. If it was a garage car I would of definitely tried for more boost and timing.

I would highly recommend E85 if your going down this path, a high octane fuel will go a long way to preserving the engine a little longer.

My 11.2 was with the std intake and crossover too, so a better intake would go a long way also, but also your weight reduction should sh*t it in ALLMTR.

9.43 @ 146

Then bang happened

9.94 Standard internals I meant (except valve springs obviously).

Gotta agree with ya on that. Wouldn't wanna put it into the wall and write it off just to save building it.
