The thought when he sold me everything was those pistons with the 2.4 stroker crank would give us the compression needed - so we bought in the crank, rods, pistons, liners.
Then in our hiatus when I reached back to Kemp he said no the pistons won't work - not enough compression we tried it - failed to work. so given that I have the crank, the rods and the liners and crank were already fitted to the block - from that point I'm now stuck with the nikasil liners and I need new pistons (this is the long story alluded to earlier)
The oil pump was sourced from Kemp and is high flow
Back then I was a consultant working 60 hrs a week and had a little too much surplus cash.. the question was asked like this to Garry: "What can you possibly sell me to make an awesome engine (natural aspiration) - then after I got the list we asked again - are you sure there is nothing else.."
that gig unfortunately disappeared - so we are not planning on injecting it anymore - 48's and done. - probably 1 more year - its technically my sons car and he is going slow - pacing the engine guy from what I can see.
