well its still there. got a clutch kit from rick ritter. Installed it today, cant try it out because I do not have any 108 race gas. so to take a poll:

how many people think I'm gonna burn up the piston on the trailblazer w/205 compression?


another guy told me to bore the exhaust out some more to lower the compression? huh?

 

stillslo,

What the guy is talking about is to raise the level of the exhaust port. I wouldn't do it. If you raise the exhaust port and don't like having no low end power, you can't put the metal you removed back. If it were mine, I might try to double the head gasket and then measure the compression. Hey it beats waiting for race gas.

 

You could also try doubling up the base gasket.

I don't know how long you'll make it. Regarless, I don't think it'll be long.

 

doubling up the base gasket is a good idea. Thanks alot guys . i'll keep you posted

 

If you want to go fast, why don't you learn how to shift and buy a racing machine? Do you buy a SUV to rip through the roads of S. Central Missouri?

 

Ah, just what we need. The oppinion of a 12 year old who just learned to use daddy's computer.

I think I speak for all of us here in saying: "Go back to the Honda Forum, little boy!"

 

Good post Mike .

 

kcih, i hate to tell ya, i have had several dirt bikes and 1 crotch rocket, this is my second 4 wheeler and i had an atc 180 honda, and no suv here, just a gmc truck and a honda civic. Why dont you try learning to ride your bicycle with out training wheels before you hop on a quad.

 

ATC 180? I don't remember those, but there was a ATC185 back when I first started riding ATV's. I was referring to your poohlaris when I mentioned the SUV. I come in here and give you guys a little grief and you get all crazy.

 

have the head rechambered by a good machine shop. weight the head before you start to cut and it is 2.7 grams per CC of volume of weight lost as you cut.
