I will need to get the crank out, but it looks decent. No discoloration or any other bad signs, other than the broken pistons and bad cylinder walls. Those I already knew about. Should be able to be bored out to fit 5.7 pistons and sell off.









I have been doing more research. Mostly on compression ratio using off the shelf parts.

Going off the assumption my cylinder head cc is 64cc, deck clearance is factory 9.4", and using a .040 compressed gasket. (all those will be double checked)

The 6.3" Rod with JE 9.7cc Dome piston (CH 1.304") = 12:1 CR - 1.92 Rod Ratio

The 6.44" Rod with JE 7.1cc Dome piston (CH 1.165") = 11.6:1 CR - 1.97 Rod Ratio

Currently trying to figure out which would be more beneficial. Of course I also have to throw in that I may end up toss on some turbos in the future if I don't quite get the results I am after.
