Re: marinized v12 running 2 x 808's
Had a run in the boat got some logging done with wideband ,mufflers were a success (no performance loss) and nice note.
Had an issue in second log (k2)at the 2.03 mark .engine bogged down a bit so I backed off straight away think we might have a slight misfire .
Will post both logs. K1 was 13:1 wot and k2 was 12.5 wot

spark plugs out revealed an oily plug ,leak down test revealed too much leakage around piston so looks like a tear down

Re: marinized v12 running 2 x 808's
Apparently jag v12 engines are really prone to detonation due to the poor squish area. Aftermarket pistons have show to fix that issue. Might be something worth looking at?

Re: marinized v12 running 2 x 808's
fitted an old bottom end that I had lying about not balanced and 9:1 comp 90 mm bore rather than 91mm bore 10.6:1 comp cost me 800rpm at wot but it will have to do for this summer boat still good for 80kmh .Pretty sury detonation was caused by to hot a heat range spark plugs plugs but shall rebuild bottom end with 10:1

So what has the detonation actually done. Damaged the rings or something?
