after sending the short block to T+J Performance to get forged guts and lower compression pistons, having it all put back together, my car is back to kicking ass. I forgot how fast it feels. I don't think that by lowering the compression from 9.85:1 to 9.0:1 that I lost too much hp, the dyno in my ass doesn't feel a major loss, maybe 5-10 hp... what do you engine experts out there think?
