Re: afr 185

I'd be careful notching the pistons. When they say the 86 GT's came without valve reliefs in the pistons they were not kidding.

They are literally a flat top piston. If I remember right the compression was a factory 9.2:1 on the 86's.

A supercharger could definitely call for dished pistons. I'd just go for a set of heads with a 190 intake valve and slightly larger combustion chamber. That would cure all the problems. 202's are to much for those pistons.
