i need more specifics to give you an accurate comp ratio.

i come up with around 10.8:1 if you use these figures...

65 cc head, 0 cc piston at 0 deck.
3.625 stroke on a 4.001 bore with a .054 gasket at 4.010....

if you want it a little more accurate, give me the details of the motor ect..

for the bracket all you have to do is bolt the bottom part and position the bracket in where it will sit , then just use a center punch ( thick one so it centers itself in the alt. bracket hole) to mark the block then drill away. use the old block as a guide to how deep to drill.
