Getting a JE High Comp 12.5:1 piston installed next week, running RACE gas 110 oct. Question is, do i need to be jetted with using 110 and having a high comp? Also, Is it a good idea to get the head and cylinder bead blasted?

if your running 110 then yes jet it to where it runs best with 110.
Are you talking about the outside of the head and cylinder or actually inside the sleeve?? Where the piston would be haha

Yes, obviously outside. lol. I think it would look 100% cleaner that it does now...

Do I have to run full 110, or can I mix? Its $5 a gallon here for 110, while $3.19 for 93 pump gas.

I notice you've got 3 different types of graphics, your grips, and block-off plate, ...
Your bumper, nerfbars, tires, and throttle cover,...
listed in you sig, but not much in the way of engine mods.

Before you get this 12.5:1 piston installed,
you'd better think seriously about having your studs replaced / upgraded by GTT, or your going to be back here very soon asking why you are blowing head gaskets, and leaking oil.

Many other members here, have learned the hard way, and have shared their experiences in the effort to save others from having to deal with the same difficult and expensive issues.

Do it right the first time, or pay triple to have it done right later.

Gee,... I hope I didn't "Sugar-coat" that too much

What do you mean by 3 different types??? Cant I just order new studs from GTT and have my machine shop install them????

He was poking some fun at you.

Do the GT Thunder studs, having them install them insures they are done correct as they all dont stick out the same lengths and the machine shop might not do it right..

So I have to send my cylinder all the way to there shop!!! What is there turn round time?

CJM is Correct, as well as, they need to be Roll Formed threads, as opposed to Tap Cut Threads. (yes, it makes a difference).

I dont see why I can't take this to my local machine shop. They build sprint car motors and ARCA motors...If i just tell them I want them installed, they can do it? I can give them strict instructions? I just hate dealing with shipping...
