Are those ceramic coated base and teflon skirts? I'll be watching this build closely. Nice work!
CP took forever to make them but now that I have them I can assemble the motor. They have a 2cc dome that puts the static compression ratio at 9.0:1 with the 70.5cc combustion chambers and 0.040" head gaskets.
I have made a few changes to the build plans. I will be fabbing up a new header to improve the efficiency of the exhaust system before the turbo. The primaries will come to a collector right behind the cam position sensor and route straight down to the turbine inlet. It will help to reduce spool time and make lots of room for a larger air intake at the front of the turbo. The new header will be equipped with EGT thermocouples for each head and no O2 sensor port. I will use the EGTs to tune the individual cylinders and a combined wideband O2 reading from after the turbo for the overall A/F ratio. That is the best way to properly tune individual cylinders with a turbo.

Nice, Eric! Can't wait to see the end result!
sweet
Awesome!!!
Looks like nice work Eric!
Thanks guys! Those are thermal ceramic top coatings and low friction ptfe skirt coatings.
So Teflon skirts ... Lol
Those pistons ars so nice!! Keep us updated.
