oK...I see what you are saying now. Totally agree. I think also, just like my 427, that with a longer stroke like the LQ9 would have, that the pistons have a higher ring land and also a thinner piston face, not making them "ideal" for power adders. I'm sure if it was set up correctly it could take the abuse. I personally wouldn't risk it.
