I am considering going boosted, and was trying to put a setup together with the short block i have. The only thing i am worried about is my quench i know its not optimal, but does it matter with a FI engine?

Bore size:4.03
Stroke:3.48
Head gasket Bore size: 4.120
Head gasket compressed thickness: .046
Combustion chamber cc: 66
Dish piston relief: -6
Deck height: .025

Cr comes out to be 9.3347:1
Anyone see a problem with this setup?

I don't see a problem with it, we have had success with many combination's of heads and pistons. Bob

In theory no. The stroke length is a little odd for a LSx motor. So I assume the motor is not LSx based?

No its a lt1 motor sorry. Why in theory no?

Sometimes well designed plans are implemented poorly with cut corners and 'cheaper' parts. Those setups always have problems even though they looked good on paper.

So what is it about the setup that does not look right? full on details are
Stock crank, forged eagle rods, forged trw pistons, Heavily cnc ported trickflow heads. Is it because of the pistons not having enough dish and me using a larger cc chamber head to compensate for that? I appreciate constructive criticism. Thank you for the help.

The no response was intended for the 'Anyone see a problem with this setup?' question. I guess I should have made than more clean in my response.

o ok sorry about that. So you do you think the quench shouldn't have an effect?
