Piston to use in 360 to get more compression
I don't see the difference here. You want 12.5. That's race gas only. What difference does it make if you end up with 14? That's race gas only. I don't see the issue. If you're gonna do it, DO IT.
12.5 to 1 i can run the 110 i run all the time now anyhow. Its clean and i like the smell of it
Car doesn't get driven but maybe 500 miles a summer plus racing, so spending 700-800 a summer on fuel doesn't bother me
Step up to over 14 to 1 now you are talking 112 or better and i cant buy that at select gas pumps around here for 7.39 a gallon like i can 110
When i start considering making some changes, i give it some thought. With the cam i have and convertor, 12.5 ish is about where i want to be. Not more or less. That should make enough power
If i wanted to make more i would use the 418, but i know me. I would bust my rearend( been there, done that) would go roller, and likely new heads. Start running low 10’s/ high 9’s in a heavier car stuff breaks. Been 9’s for a long time already before
Already have 10k slated for new trailer and golf cart..... just wanna dip in the 10’s, changes i have in mind will be cheap and accomplish that without other changes to the car needed..... and i can likely swap the 418 for the freshen up and new pistons and rods at a buddy’s Mopar engine shop who does outstanding work. I am getting too old to likecworking on stuff much anymore. I just like to race and come home in one piece( car too)
