    Lq4 rering

    No milling , changed to lq9 piston and stock rods are 6.098 and new rods are 6.100 over 10:1 probably close to 10.5:1. No real goals but thinking with with cam,8.1 injectors ,1 3/4 primaries bbk drop in headers and black bear tune thinking maybe 400ish. More of a towing engine really.
