I am working on a M right now, It has 4-1/4s high compression pistons. I am installing a copper head gasket, .020 thick, and shaving the head (8060D).100. It was 70hp when I started working on it. It had 150psi at cranking speed. I am not touching the wrist pins. Just head work, governor spring, Carb modifications, changing fuel form 94 octane, to gas and ethanol mix, and copper head gasket. The pistons have a .375 step on the top of the piston. In the shape of the compression chamber. My goal is somewhere beteween 80-85 at 540. if it is, the engine will lug down up to 90-95 at 400 pto rpm. I belive that this engine could be alot stronger if I changed the wrist pin location. when I am done I will let you know how much hp I got from it. NO BS Numbers, Just the truth, I am taking a few pictures this time with my digital camera, I hope I can learn how to send some pictures to you, I am working on it. So, far I've lowered the head .152 thousandths I am checking piston,valve clearence as well. Anyway, thats what I,m doing to the project M, should have it done by Sat. Like I said, I am not going to be dishonest about the hp. How many hp do you think it will make? Right now, your guess is as good as mine. Later ChadS
