it is a dry kit, and my compession ratio is supposed to be 10.1 with my pistons and heads. also anytime i am at wot the pms reads 41*-43* of total timing. whether it be 3000rpms or 6500rpms. i think i have something wrong cause it just doesnt seem right. i had a 89lx that would spark knock when i put the timing past 14* base. and this one wont knock with even 16*base timing on 87 octane. plus the car just doesnt seem to pull very hard any more, like its lost a lot of power. for some reason i keep thinking i have a bad headgasket, or my heads need to be redone. about every 2 weeks i lose about an inch of water out of my reservoir, but there is no sign of it in the oil, and it doesnt smoke. i dont know, im going to cordova for the ford show, ill probably just pick up a 331 or 347 kit and be done with it, and b 4 i put it all in i will replace all the sensors.
