Compression Ratio Question

My 340 with eddy heads and about 10.1:1 to 10.25:1 (can't remeber the math) with a Crower solid 248/252* at 50 did fine with 91 pump gas, I had 3.91 and the car weighed about 3100. Never heard any fuss from the motor and it ran strong.

I would deff run at least 10.50:1 and a bigger cam.... 228/230?? isn't that almost a stock cam! Like others have said, I would also go with either 3.73 or 3.91s, with the OD you'll be flying.

Most of this is open to personal preference so you'll get a lot of diff answers. What kind of build are you doing?

The car will be driven on the street, mostly local driving, but I will put it on the interstate from time to time for 3-5 hour trips. I would like it to cruise the highway with minimal strain on the running gear, but when I'm in town and a 5.0 Mustang or ricer saddles up next to me, I want to be able to give them a good look at my TTI exhaust!
