Custom Arias Piston with the correct deck height for the d15. Not just a d16 piston in a d15 block. I had them made for the specific rod length and deck height |

Well I got the engine in yesterday. Today I am going to try and get the rest of it all together. I still have some wiring to do. And a few other things. Hope to hear it fire up in a day or so....

Well lastnight I got the header and some other little things on the car... I had to beat the hell out of the cross member. 88-91's have 2 different styles. I got the one that sucked. I am going to get fuel and oil today. I hope to have it all ready to fire up this weekend.
With the car 90% done. We may not have all the parts we wanted on it this year but money has been real tight to say the least.
We are just going to roll with it and see what happens!!

| High Compression D15 |
| Yes it is... I was fortunate enough to get one before this event... |

Well.. Here is a short vid of the car running..
And here is the battery we are using for the car. It weighs in at just 3 pounds. And is very compact.

 wow that is awesome. do the carbs flow better than the multi point fuel injection system? better power? i'm not knocking you, definitely not knocking you for your work. its badass. just wondering the decision of carb over injection. |
| High Compression D15 |
| where did you get that intake at?? and yes i would like to know why you went with a carb also?? |
| High Compression D15 |

I chose to go with the carbs because they are an inexpensive power gain. Back in the late 80's was when I first started with carbs on D series engines. Back then we had no kind of tuning capabilities we now have today. We were averaging a 20-25% increase across the boards with the addition to carbs.
I am also allowed to run a much larger camshaft profile with the carbs then with the stock MPFI.
I dont need an ECU to tune. This means I dont need to spend big amounts of money on tuning and other electronics. |

As of now the only dyno numbers I have from the engine are from the previous p29 build 2 years ago. 162whp. After I calculated everything, the engine was actually just under 11:1 compression. I was expecting better with the current build.
Unfortunately, we were not able to make a clean pass this fall with the car. So over the Winter, I plan on pulling the head and checking for any kind of damage. Porting the head and fuel system. Along with redoing the suspension is in the plans.
