Default Looking to lower my compression ratio?
Hey guys I'm putting a D1SC on my car my current mods are TSP PRC stage1 heads with a Trqerv2 cam (232/234 .595/.598 1112)
stock head gasket Im planing on ringing around 6-8psi.

I was thinking about swaping out my heads to lower my comp ratio but wasn't sure which ones to get. In the future I will build a forged 347 to Handel more boost so keep that in mind.

Thanks

Patriot Performance LQ9 heads are a good way to lower the compression ratio. Bob
