What are everyones opinions about this little idea? Any idea how many PSI it can take? Or if it will even work or be worth it?

looks like it would hold but would your pistons and rods? is the question

 

[sm=ummmmokay.gif]if i were trying to see how much power i could make for the least amount of money, i might consider that, but for anything im going to do any amount of daily driving, no thanks. do it right or go home. biggest problem i can see is that the material they put in there is poured in, so even once it cures, its not the strongest material there is. sleeves are made of very hard forged and billet materials, and can definetely handle a lot more boost. but ofr DD levels of boost, i still thin k i would rather have the open deck so that the engine can cool better.

 

well what if u had a spare block lyin around and wanted to experiment? Thats when id try it.

 

Yeah, obviously better pistons and stronger rods would be needed, but Im just worried this aluminum would fall apart at 15 psi, not good. It seems kinda shady to me, for something that cost a few hundred dollars for a company like Golden Eagle charge a hell of a lot more than 50 dollars for something similar.
