    Thanks steef

    I went rallying on new years day, ended up punching rear shocks up through body



    I made a spacer restrictor thingy to stop the suspension moving much, 0mm bump travel 10mm droop travel. Never rubs now and handles like an actual kart
    hold on toght through bumps though eek



    Next ill do same to the front, I have a great idea

    The squish trick is to die grind some of the squish area away to lower the compression. You will need to CC each chamber to make them all the same but it's quite easy.
    You will always get the argument that you need a squish area to help prevent det but then most of the people trying to argue this point run thicker than stock head gaskets anyway which makes the squish area totally redundant anyway.

    I made a head completely cylindrical in the chamber once but with rounded edges. Dropped too much compression though really and made the engine a little crap off boost. Made up for it by running 2 bar though lol.

    Just keep working on one chamber till your happy then move to the next and copy the first as best you can.

    Tbh mate I ain't lowering the compression. All engines need squish and high comp turbos perform really well. I would deformed run stock thickness gasket cose altering gasket thickness changes comp, squish and cam timing.

    I really wanted to build a hi comp rb for drifting like belindas castrol. You need wide power band for drifting and fast road imo
