I wouldnt want to let it go for any less than 750 since I had to drive to Dallas to get it. You thought about putting some cal tracs on the *** end to help out. I bet you hit mid 11s on a 150 shot easily.

Beau, my CR was like 10.8ish:1 with 62cc heads and a .045 comtic head gasket. Im throwing some 317s on there with .054 gaskets. Should drop me well over apoint in CR. It will still be a bit high for high boost but I dont want to swap pistons right now. The pickup tube wasnt the cause of the oil consumption that just caused the wierd oil pressure issues I had. I think my DART heads were leaking oil down the valve stem, the speed shop I bought em from says they are fine, so they are selling them for me. If they dont sell Ill throw them on ebay. They probably just need new valve guide seals but I needed bigger chambers anyway.

Mark This time around **** is getting some loc-tite, damn bellhousing bolts were finger tight, trans dipstick tube was bent to ****, and the converter snub was pratically welded into the crank snout It seems me drinking and put my truck back together didnt mix too well
