                Tomorrow or Sunday we should have the rebuilt 1.6 turbo
diesel engine running in my 1990 Fox 2 door Wagon. I decided to lower the
compression some to hopefully let it run cooler and be able to use more
boost. I had the top of the pistons milled about twenty five thousands. They
just barely stick out of the top of the block now at TDC. The milling took
out about half the depth of the swirl pockets in the pistons.

                I will have a report as soon as I get a test run on it.
