6.0 lq4 swap im thinking about doing an lq4 swap in my 2002 camaro ... the thing im worried about is the compression on this motor... it has dished pistons which will lower the compression... i have untouched 243 heads wondering if just a cosmetic gasket will boost up the compression enuf to run like if it had flat pistons... just wondering .. any help and knowledge will be very much appreciated

lq4 = 9.4 comp lq9 "which is a lq4 plus flat tops" = 10.0 comp i am also putting a set of untouched 243's on my 2003 lq4 and i used a calculator i found on one of these threads and i came up with 10.25 to 10.3 comp roughly depending on gasket thickness
