Doesn't seem like a lot of people are into the N/A ka, but I wanted to give it a shot. What little tricks could I do to get it into 12, or 13:1 ratios?

welding the combustion chamber to raise the compression ratio.

there aren't really any "tricks" per se. It's all math.

SOHC Pistons, Thinner HG, etc.

For the most part, trying to make N/A power with a KA makes no sense unless you have some kind of road racing class rules to meet. By the time you're done building a 200 hp na ka you could have had a higher hp turbo ka everytime.

How much power are you pushing with that on pump gas? Sounds like something I want to do lol

Do you have to change the sohc pistons to fit a double cam?
