If you are running higher than stock compression and a big cam i want to know what your specs are.
I do not want your info if you have aftermarket or fly cut pistons.

So what compression ratio?

What are your cams specs?

thanks

.040 off 5.3L GTP heads (2.02 intake), 232/232 .574/.574 112 camshaft. 11.8:1 compression (estimated)

Had to flycut the pistons .020 for the intakes to achieve ample clearance... I know you didn't want this information...but this is more or less important info for you as 232 is just a tad too big. 230 duration on the intake would've been border line without flycutting OEM pistons.

when in doubt, clay the piston and measure <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
