shell V-power has 100 octane rating (RON) so average octane rating maybe around 95 to 96 octane which i think is adequate for 15:1 CR.
well if your friend says that 17:1 can work with 98 to 99 octane pump gas then by all means try it then post the results here whatever they may be.
so now are you going to get Manston II cilinder kit?

"so now are you going to get Manston II cilinder kit?"
No, I hesitate
The Petrol station has V-Power and V-Power Racing with min 99 octane gas.

My other problem is that I can buy the Manston anytime but if I buy EVO I have to wait ....and I'm very impatient
To make your life simple, take a compression test. If you have over 150 psi you will need race gas. The Hebo Maston come with different size base gaskets. Normally, if you use the thickest one you can use pump gas. I have a Piaggio Maston #1 cylinder on the rode and its a rocket.

thanks Velo, i have seen the photos of the PR2 cilinder and they are right when they said it will need lotsa work to get 20hp.
i'll keep my options open but until then my next cilinder kit of choice will be the Polini EVO (6) LC Minarelli.

If you are talking about the Metrakit Pro Race, yes it recess into the cylinder head to help seal it better for water leaks from o'rings.
I would try the Metrakit Pro Race Exhaust. The Cylinder + Exhaust seem to work out good. I clocked a Beta Temp modifed to Liquid Cooled in sprint race with my radar gun. Here got 85mph. He is using a complete Metrakit motor.
I am suprised not too may persons use the Pro Race Kits over in Europe. It seems much better than Hebo Maston. I have tried both and I've visited the factory.
Note: Metrakit rate their Pro Race Kits at 15,000rpm. When I raced their Zip in Spain, they ran it at 13,000rpm. Their Zip was FAST indeed, I must be honest!!!

"Both manston kit look the same to me"
In turn they are different!! Is NiKaSil clear, equable or it's inhomogeneous?? Do you see little white or black spots on it??
If you can scrape the NiKaSil with your nail it has got bad NiKaSil
Please do a Rockwell hardness test (HRC)!})
