94 Mahle's w/ Century cylinders (long barrels), 86mm CB crank w/ Chevy journals, 5.6 H-beam rods w/ ARP 200 rod bolts, E125 w/ 1.25 rocker arms, ASC w/ sandseal and Tims Sig heads (42 x 37). Shimmed under the cylinder .040" and using .060" CB copper head gasket. Head cc is 45 w/ DH of .100. So DC is approx 8 to 1. :dance:

Low end is close to the same but once the revs get wound up, you start to feel the difference. Especially in 4th gear.... It pulls in 4th gear hard...

Small cam? I have .523" lift with 262 Deg @ .050.... 'sides, I was not about to pop for another cam that would need 1.4 rocker arms... I considered the FK-10 and even the FK-89 but the existing one got used.

that makes sense if you all ready had the cam and rockers I guess :thumbs:
(FYI I've got .553" lift and 262 deg @ .050, I went with a "mild" cam that would work with my eventual turbo set up)
So you gonna woop up on Mike now?! :dance:
