LS6 motor Q's Ok, LS6 motor, 10.5:1 CR (64.43cc heads). I assume this is with a .052 gasket right? Also taking average out of hole piston at .08. So theoreticaly the quench on a stock LS6 is ~ .046 So, if I were to change the gaskets with a .040 MLS this should give me ~.032 quench Now that would mean a .012 reduction in cc (at .006/cc) = 2cc 64.43-2cc=62.43 or a CR increase of ~ 10.7>10.8 CR So if I were to mill an LS6 (243) head another .015 I should be ~11:1 CR To sum it up: .040 MLS + .015 mill = 11:1 CR on a stock LS6, W/.032 squish Would I be correct in this assumption? |

I would say that you are in the ballpark in being correct, but having to run 100 octane to keep it from detonating itself to death as a result, a pain in the .............. |
No need for 100 Octane for an 11.0:1--- 12.0:1 i agree In any case regular gas is 95 octane here and premium is 98 octane at 1.49$ a gallon. So no problem on this issue. :) |
