Question on Power difference between high compression and low compression N/A engines
#52
So whats the point of this thread? Are you going to take the heads off and mill 'em down or go to a 243 head and retest? I'm confused... pure speculation???

I'm sure there are a few guys around here that have a similar H/C w/ full bolt-on setup as me that are at 10.5:1 or more. So for comparisons sake we now have a low compression engine results to compare with. Sorry if this was anti-climactic for you!

Will be putting some boost through the motor before I do anything else to it, then when it blows I'll see about changing the compression when it's time for a rebuild.

Wilde racing built a 408 with 11.1:1 compression of something to that effect. Not really sure what it eventually made because he never put it on rollers but he made it live with a good tune and good fuel.
