Default Re: Compression and flow

Another problem with compression is the lame from and detention. A 9:1 Cr can detitinate when when the flame front is too long. this comes when the piston to head clearance is too large. This can be solves with higher Octane fuels, but that cost more money. I like to run 87, not much sense in a higher octane fuel in a "street engine) I hope to get somes pics of the head modifications at the welders. I have two intakes for the engine a Merc bored for the 2GC and an offy 4Bl witha holley 390, This has a very small primary port.
