i'm putting on a 2ltre head on to a 1600 block, blow thru supercharger setup, hoping it'll handle 10psi, havn't tested the comp ratio yet tho, standard internals should hold up.

easiest way to drop compression is a g200 or g180 block, head crank etc, with 1600 rods, its almost perfect, also thats way is great if you have rebuilt an engine to run n/a and want to turbocharge it later, a decomp plate between the head and block is another good way but u gota screw around with the timing chain a bit
