Default what comp. ratio is to high for FI?

I have a 2002 LS1 with a 224/224 112+4 cam and 62cc stage II heads. Im guessing im in the 11.3 range of a comp. ratio. would this be disaster for a kenne bell supercharger?

Yes its a bad idea... The othe issue you're going to run into with running the kenne bell is they make a lot of heat regardless if they have a heat exchanger or not. IF you can - I'd go to 317 casting head with a 72CC chamber and a 8PSI pulley and you'll have a bad *** ride. If you have any other questions shoot me a PM. We've done lots with Kenne Bell so feel free to ask away.

Thats way to high CR for any decent boost level on pump gas.
