Let me know Pls?
i just bought a gsr block with srp forged pistons and rods. now im not sure on the compresstion but i know its low and was used on a turbo setup. the pistons are practically new. the guy totalled the acura and parted it out. he had just got it tuned to. sucks. anyhow i was thinking of ripping the block apart and putting new bearing and rings maybe even balnance everything just to be safe. also can i figure the compression on the pistons. and how much hp can it now handle. it also has a block guard. or should i just go ahead and finish assembling the head and so forth

been there done that
if you know the specs on the pistons and the cc of your head, you can get a close estimate of what c/r you would have using a compression calculator like www.zealautowerks.com
