you will be at too high of a DCR. What are the exact specs of that cam?

Your SCR with .040 gaskets would be 11.8:1

its a 228/228-.588/.588-112 im having the heads milled to 60cc for a full .5 raise in CR per machinist. he also said that 4cc makes .5 CR!!!! so going with the smaller gasket a .040 (.012 loss in material) would be another 2cc bump so that would make a .75 gain in comp from stock ls6 10.5 to 11.25 right??? my pistons are stock
