Junkyard 5.9L Magnum + Edelbrock LA heads build

Not a whole lot of progress but I did CC a couple of the combustion chambers to get an idea of my static CR... turns out they're about 63cc which gives an SCR of only 9:1 (8.95:1 to be exact). Not too thrilled about that and I'm curious how it will run in the lower RPM range with that kind of SCR, according to the Wallace Racing calculator that puts my dynamic compression at around 7.3:1 taking into account the lower air density at 5000 feet above sea level.

I'm glad I had the cam custom-ground with no more duration/overlap than it has and hopefully my 2600-RPM stall converter will put the RPMs high enough at launch for it to not be a dog, I did explain to Jim at Racer Brown that I am at high altitude and he took that into consideration. I probably also need to swap out my 2.94 rear gears for 3.55s even more now with this knowledge.
