The Ford Barn

I just picked up a set of Canadian aluminum heads here on the Barn.
I'm thinking they'll be a good addition to the blower motor I'm building.
I've read that they're low compression.
Does anyone have any info on these heads??
Thank you,
Joe

C8CM-B aluminums are listed as 76-77 cc's with 7.2 to 1 compression, slightly higher comp than the iron ones

Isn't that on a Merc (stroker) engine?

Yes, it's a Mercury head and specs are for that use.
