I have been trying to figure out my DCR for my new setup. I downloaded the calculator, but I can`t get it to let me put any values in it. So would someone please help me. Stock 01 LS1. Ported and milled .018 853`s, .042 head gasket and comp cam 228 cam. Here`s the cam card for the cam.

I am as far form an expert on this as you can get, so take this fwiw.
The cam card was a little hard to make out, but it appears to be a 228/228 with #3718 lobes, ground on a 113 LSA and installed 2 degrees advanced, for a 111 ICL.
Assuming a stock LS-1 shortblock, .042 gasket, and 63.67cc heads, my calculations yield a SCR of 11.017 and a DCR of 8.280. The IVC is 45 ABDC (@ 0.050).
Installing with 4 degrees of advance (109 ICL) boosts the DCR to 8.428 and pulls the IVC back to 43 ABDC.

8.28 is a solid boost over the stocker's 7.07.
