    What do I do next?

    Ok after doing my HG the compression was too high and my bottom end is knocking and about to go. Sound like a machine gun! What is my best option? Do I get a new engine, if so where from? Or do I break it for parts? Any ideas, anyone.....

    How easy is it to forge

    Sorrry about all the forging questions it's something I am going to do and am getting all my research in to avoid any massive mistakes. Once I have bought my pistons and rods are they easy to fit? I assume that and an uprated HG is all I will need? Thanks

    Forging an engine

    I am thinking about buying another engine and working on it on an engine stand while still running my stock engine while doing this. My question is can I take a standard uk starlet engine and forge that? Uprating all the internals ie pistons rods etc. Will it then essentially be a turbo engine?

    Engine Temperature

    I just got my HG done and noticed I had no thermostat. I have since put in a thermostat and now notice my temperature sometimes creeps above the half way mark. Most of the time it stays on half way. Can anyone let me know what is "normal" for my temp gauge. Thanks

    Replaced HG will it be reliable?

    I have replaced my HG and had my head skimmed. Apparently this has been done a few times on the car. People are telling me that it wont last very long as the compression will be too high. Is this true? Should a compression test tell me whether this is going to happen? If so what sort of results...

    Screamer pipes

    Are screamer pipes a good idea for road use? Only reason I ask is I have never heard one before and TT say they are intended for track use?
