Hey Bernd, sorry I didn't mean to imply that your motors were having
problems, I just remember that there was talk of people having problems with
the head gaskets/stroker/SC combo. I figured if anyone had found a fix for
the problem you would. How much boost could you run with the basic kit and
9.1 compression safely, and what about the strength?
