Need Comp 224 cam #s
I can not get the calculator in the advanced performance tech sticky to work for me. Can some one tell me what the DCR will be with stock 99 heads, head gaskets, and the 224/224 .581/.581 114(+4?) cam will be versus the stock 99 camaro cam? Thanks

From experience, I was running ~ 8.5 on 91 and maxed out at 26* of timing. Wouldn't take any more.

2 things you want to improve while raising DCR.
1- quench, this is done by running a thinner gasket .030>.040 quench will reduce detonation potential.
2- Plugs, as SCR/DCR goes up using 1 range colder plug is recommended with a shorter gap (.040/.045)
