You need to realize something that escapes people. These setups were designed for STOCK cars with STOCK compression ratios.

Building a durable, high performance forged slug motor, then dropping the compression ratio to LESS than your stock static ratio is just plain stupid..

Run factory compression, build a free flowing exhaust, which includes head porting, and learn to tun with the '749.

9.8:1 and iron heads. I did not want it to be a dog not in to boost.

With the 7.5 and the 3.33 what is your impeller speed!?

Damn. Sounds nice.

I'm redoing my motor this winter. Gonna go with a smaller chamber, around 9.7:1 c/r.. S-trim.

Something that makes the most power, and is 50 state legal.

Well what else would you like me to say?

Keep your air and cat functioning. Mass uses the same emissions as california. I passed with flying colors on my 560hp setup.

I've been running 9.3:1 stock swirl port iron heads and 9-12 psi depending on belt slippage with no problems for 4-5K miles. I live in central FL where air temp is in the ~90 everyday and water temp struggles to stay below 220*.

I would think AL heads and good/smart tuning should see 10:1 comp and 15 psi easy on pump gas. Think big intercooler or other forms of detonation control.
