Should have the engine out in the next couple weeks and another FA20 going in the car a few weeks after that. Pretty sure I know exactly what happened and how to prevent it from happening again. More details to come.

I have mixed feelings about low comp pistons out of boost.

Quick update: the FA20 I was going to buy didn't work out so looks like I'm going to put a V8 in it after all. But there's a twist, it won't be an LS engine.
Got the stock engine out And the trans is out Found a trans I think will work with the new engine And then there's this. . . . Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk

Nope, it's not a V6. (It's also not a Toyota engine)

I believe that's the rc-f or something. The 350 has a 3.5L V6. And this engine only makes about 380hp on the stock E85 tune.

That would make sense(350z). I can't afford a Lexus so I never looked into it much lol. I just remember seeing 5L V8 making any 450hp and LOLing at the Americans shitty power to ratios

Thanks for the pictures! I love following projects like this as I'm no where near competent enough to open up an engine :-)
Do you know what causes the build up on the cylinder head? I wonder if it's a result of blow-by.

How embarrassing, lol. Yes, I meant piston. I'm still learning so there is a lot of info rattling around in my head causing a mix up from time-to-time... but I promise I know the difference between the two.
Thanks for the answer!
