Is this setup looking alright? Wanting to get front mount turbo, probably Hi-Flo from Marko. Shortblock is stock crank polished, Comp-Star Callies Rods with ARP 2000 bolts, Diamond ceramic top/oil shedding side coated flattop pistons -2cc vr, (rings were set for mid size @ 300shots of nitrous), cometic .040" gaskets, morel hyd roller lifters, LS6 oil pump, cloyes hexadjust w/ JWIS chain, cam will be from EDC current one is also for @ 300shots of nitrous kind of big for turbo 231/242 .630/.6222 @ 114, looking at a set of FFHP 6.0l heads unmilled or maybe others for lowering compression, LS6intake, ported TB.
I figure the .040cometics although will raise the cr a hair it will also combat detontation better so might make it a good trade off.
Ultimately would like the rev dome piston, but I already have this shortblock waiting to go in.

With a 0 deck height and going with a 3.905" bore and a stock crank using 71cc chambers because you didnt supply allthe info i came up with 10.13:1 comp..... if it was my motor and i was really wanting to go turbo id ditch the pistons and go another set.....

Depends on how much boost you want to run... Dished pistons would def go a long way.

Ok, found calculator, and comes out to roughly 8.5 static. So, next in order is the cam selection to get dynamic. Guess I will take my still new on the stand shortblock apart and refit the rods with some Mahle power pak -16cc. Good thing their coated.
