Man it could be so many differant things.....

If I was you I would pull the heads back off flow them and cc them. You will never get any power if you don't know what your working with

What are your future plans? any nitrous or FI?

I would change the pistons too...it sucks but...I would, the numbers don't lie

Whats wrong with these pistons. Compression should be around 10.9 -11:1 shouldnt it?

those pistons are severely lowering your compression if youre staying n/a nobody can estimate ur compression too much without knowing the chamber size of your heads

It would only make sense to use that piston if the block wasn't decked and if the combustion chamber was close to stock CC?

He could run more and not change anything else and make more power......

If the block is not decked it would be around 10.6 with a 56cc head.....just a rough estimate.

Do you mean w/ the pistons he has now? I just entered 54cc and w/ the pistons he's running now it came out to 11.0.

Block has been decked and the combustion chamber is stock.

Your problems are listed below.

THESE 2 TOGETHER UNLESS YOU HAVE A ZERO DECK BLOCK AND EVEN IF YOU DID YOUR COMPRESSION IS LOW
SRP -12cc Dish Pistons
Felpro 1074 Head Gasket .039

YOU MAY NEED 42LB DEPENDING ON DUTY CYCLE
30lb SVO Injectors

NO WAY YOU NEED THIS AT THAT POWER LEVEL
3.5" Maf

NEEDS TO BE A 58MM
52mm TB

NEEDS A TUNE ON A DYNO
PCMforless tune

THESE TYPICALLY READ 20-30 HP LOWER THAN A DYNOJET
Dynapack Dyno


My car made 329RWHP with ALL the bolt ons a six speed and a 3.73 geared 10 bolt. This car should make 400rwhp through the 9 inch on a dynojet.
