any ideas? if it is not a possiblity i have a friend that is selling a complete Lt1 from a 96 or so firebird for cheap that i may swap in.... thanks for any help.

 

Rebuild it with different pistons.

 

a little off topic but why is there an a/c compressor on a 13:1 motor; doesnt really make sense to me

 

you don't really have alot of vital informations/specs to tell though. we need to know the specs of the camshaft and cylinder heads. a 13:1 motor is pushing it no matter how you look at it. i'd pull the pistons and put in a set of 11:1's. with a camshaft with lots of valve overlap, you should be fine. i wouldn't expect to be able to daily drive it though. engines like this simply don't like the abuse of every day driving.

what kinda trans/converter/gear is the car running as well?
