Default Re: Let's build a drag race 8BA engine

Getting 14:1 CR is difficult, but not impossible. Especially with a large displacement block. However getting any HP from it would be limited by the amount of air you could get into it. Alky is not a great fuel and you need twice as much by volume to equal any gas. Now with alittle Nitro, that's another story.. Oxygen is the key to horsepower. Yne more you have, the more power you get.
