Compression boost without machine work I guess. Time will tell...

Ever tried making a popup?

Im interested to see the psi bump it makes when u get it back together

I did one in my 353. Gained about 10psi, it's a welded pop-up.

Me too.

385 boot fits nice and snug. I was expecting to have add some sealant but that's not necessary.

Used the lathe at work.

Mo betta...

Carb mocked up. Impulse is way short with either one but that's an easy fix.[emoji4]

Guess I'll start with the rwj..divider is pulled.

Initial compression. Very lightly oiled piston/ring. Also a little proof it's in there. Lol

Wow! I figured it to be at least what it was even before seating the rings?

 

[Keith Gandy]

Think it will hit 180psi?

 

[beaglebriar]

Welp it's running. Initial impression is...well I don't know yet. Lol

I need to play with the tune some more it has a slight bog.

I'll get a video for you ho's...

 

[beaglebriar]

She will turn some rpms. Lol
Maybe I oughta turn it down a bit.

 

[beaglebriar]

Video uploading. It'll take a while with my hillbilly internet connection..

I'm hoping for 180. Someone said static compression could be lower due to the thin ring. IDK

Also this cylinder is well used. Not scored but she has some time on her.

Ive seen worn cylinders with no scoring after a good honing or emery clothing pick up to 30psi. Did u hone it?

There's power in the lowers. You don't want to cause turbulence into the transfers. I did one with now machine work thst hit 180 and I'm at 1100' elevation.

Scuffed it with some 320 grit.
