I'm planning on doing my cam swap in about two weeks and I recently came into some money so i'm going to do a 350 tbi intake ported with s/r torquer heads ported, and ported and polished on the exhaust side of the heads. My question is if I milled the heads down to increase the compression ratio would that work out well on a 305TBI?

 

The S/R 305's already come at 58cc and that's gonna put you at your stock 9.3:1 ratio. What do you want to mill them for?

 

I just heard if you mill heads a little it will raise the compression ratio. Wouldn't this help out?

 

Arn't there extra thin gaskets you can use on the heads that would work like shaving metal, but you can go back later?

 

Yeah you can use different head gaskets to raise the compression ratio and it is like milling the head. 9.3:1 ratio to me seems like the right ratio to run on the street because you can run like 8* advance and 87 octane without detonation.

 

FPP 1094 shim

Its got a .015 compressed thickness which will add to your compression. I had my vortecs (62cc stock) milled .020 and am running the 1094s. We put some "high tack" coating on them. No problem at all with sealing after 540 miles. I made a post about them a while back and poeple seemed to have good luck with them so I figured Id give it a try
