43293, pistons and valves
Posted by morganN2Ors, Nov-18-01 09:28 AM
I am looking to rebuild my 420a for heavy nitrous. I'm running a 75 shot NOS fogger with good results. I want to go with a 100 or maybe a 150. Need a good set of forged pistons and valves to complete my parts list.Any tech wizards have suggestions.

What is the best compression ratio to use from that kit if you want to run NOS? 10.5 to 1???

Thanks

Steetable with Nitro, 10.5, I was going to try 12:1 with nitrous at the track on race gas but I don't know whats going to happen with the car at this point.
