WOW I screwed the pooch on that one completely I dunno wtf i was typing.

Having the relief in the pistons like that, can you run high lift long duration cams?

What compression is that motor? Do you have to run special thickness head gaskets?

How are these wiseco hybrid builds working out? Anyone have a detailed build out post? I'm thinking if doing a 255 and I'm trying to figure out the best way to do it.

Building engines isn't rocket science; use quality parts, quality machine shop, and don't cut corners.

We've built many hybrids without issues.

A customer has asked us to build a long block for his STi.
By having the longblock completed before the car arrives, down time to the customer is kept to a few days, instead of months, like at other places.
