I just had a shop do an overbore for me after I blew my motor, and they couldn't figure out how to remove them so they just bent them out of the way. I'm hesitant to bend them back cause they may be weakened from it and break off eventually.
I've been doing some reading about some people just removing them all together and blocking them off. Just want some opinions on that and some pros and cons. I was running around 340whp and plan to get to 400.
I've deleted them on a Honda h22 before but that's just an NA vtec motor that revs to 7500. Ive been driving that for 40,000 km with no issues.
The result will obviously be more oil pressure for the rod and main bearings, so is this better than a little extra piston lube and cooling? Especially for high HP and boost.
