early DSMs monitor knock and targeted low 20s timing, but various fuel recipee to keep it happy
I agree, 12-13 sound way low, especially for 7.8, even pump gas


I posted some info way back on an Oz staz 2.4 stock piston, perf cam/springs, big plenum foward-facing, gt30/40 ~350whp/380tq
I'm really curious to see what this 'other mitsu truck motor' can do boosted street. LSRMike was a different target
probably go no further than cast piston take me. Don't wanna find out where the block faints


I'm not sure if this cracking isn't a "mitsu thing". We've had a bunch of starion member cracked G54
DSM/Truck guy didn't get specific, only warned in his build thread. He said he was at 800hp on his DSM block replacement. No crack
