ok guys, i need some help with CR and boost on race gas, max effort!!!! ok, i really want to push this and see what it can do! i bought some AFR LT4 220's and now i need to change my pistons to get my CR down! my question is what do yall think the best CR is?
385 lt1
not solid roller so wont be goin over 6500 or so (stock computer)
race gas only, 109 or so (still running o2's)
th400
i really dont want to run more than bout 20 psi
oh also im guessing its best to run the thinnest head gasket possible right?
so give me your answer and reasoning! thanks!

That's a question with lots of variables but I would go with 9.1 which would be safe at that boost level and race gas. Of course that's completely based on a good safe tune.
