Compression Ratio Question??? Looking for question concerning CR. I am in the process of freshening up my current engine and was thinking about upping my compression a little. Current engine is a forged 408 with a set of TFS CNC ported cathedral port 235 heads. Car is a street/track car that does see a touch of the laughing gas. I am currently running on 93 pump gas and will continue to run on 93. I have a dedicated fuel cell that I run c16 in when I spray it if that matters. I'm wanting to know what is a safe all around CR to stay within.
Thanks,

11.5:1 is a pretty good number...your tuner won't have to play many games to keep it out of detonation.
