what consists of a built engine? the basics to keep force induction engine lasting a long time. i would like to get the comptech sc kit and i would like to keep it at 10lbs but like would it be smarter to build the engine to reinforce the extra stress on the engine so it would last longer. and to get more power with out goin so high in psi pulley. hopefully this post makes sense but please respond with comments

 

Built engine generally = sleeves, forged pistons, forged rods, plus all of the supporting goodies.

The factory engine should take 10 lbs with appropriate engine management. Having the heads ported and polished with oversized valves will "get more power without goin so high in psi pulley" and a thicker headgasket will allow a safety margin.

 

Who head gasket would you recommand

 

Doesn't a headgasket and/or lower compression decrease power at the same psi levels?

 

my other question is then do u guys have any suggestions how i should build my engine im not talkin spending crazy$$$$ but well honda just told me i have bent valves, they dont know how many yet cuz they didnt take off the head but like i don thave 3K to fix it now but im deployin in sept so ima have some extra cash and i wanna go SC so i want to do it right so i wont have problems in the end.

 

You could buy my head that I have for sale It won't be an upgrade but at least it'll have good valves etc.

 

Or you can just buy my valves, springs, and retainers

We're unscrupulous aren't we?

 

Sure are No shame I tell ya. Good word BTW...unscrupulous

 

what kinda parts u have in your head?OEM?aftermarket?
