help on raising compression on lq9 6.0...
i just bought me a 04 lq9 out of a escalade, my plan is to do a custom grind cam thinking of going with a 236/242 .602"/.610" 112lsa with 7.35 pushrods, im wanting to lower my the cc from 72 to around 67cc enough to get me in the 11's on compression, which im guessing ill have to have around .40 milled off to do so, havn't really figured it up yet but you get the point, will i run into any problems with ptv clearance with this setup, i know my best route would be to buy some 243's but don't have the funds right now, so just looking for some input or some suggestions on how to raise the compression a full point with this size cam and not running into problems, thanks for all the help

i think youll have to lower the CCs of the heads to around 62cc to get 11.1 or even a tad more if it were me id look into a set of TEA stage 2.5 ls6 heads for the money i hear over on tech there damn good. as far as PTV i would think with that much duration and milling the heads to at least 62cc i would def check the PTV.
thats a hella cam you wanta run hope you plan on at least a 3600 verter
