Been racing since 2009 on the same Wiseco pistons and stock liners.  4-5 rac=
e weekends a year on the motor.=20

I run about 12.75:1 and shift at 6500-7000.

My usefully engine use to be limited by stock cranks. After breaking 2, I we=
nt to a billet crank. =20

Pistons, rods and liners have all survived the 2 broken cranks.=20
