Re: High compression or low compression.

I mic'd it with a digital @ .104 and kieth black does not offer one like that.??
I am not sure how to check the deck clearance.
stock head gasket seams like it is pretty close to the fel pro marine that was on there before.
I did not measure can do that tomorrow if it helps.

Re: High compression or low compression.

formula 31 i was unable to get that to work.
i talked to edelbrock about the compression and they said it would be aprox 9.5 : 1 ?
i don't wont to over do the cast crank.
The rods do have new arp bolts.
