combustion chamber size to achieve 12:1 compression w/ truck heads. Anyone know what size combustion chamber will produce 12 to 1 compression with truck heads and a stock gm head gasket? How much milling is generally necessary to achieve this?

Re: combustion chamber size to achieve 12:1 compression w/ truck heads. Right about 54ccs chambers would be needed. Without doing the math they would need to be milled about .050-.060 or so.

Re: combustion chamber size to achieve 12:1 compression w/ truck heads. Thanks Paul! I just sent you guys an email with the same question. Will an ls6 intake fit properly on truck heads milled .060?

Re: combustion chamber size to achieve 12:1 compression w/ truck heads. Went with the TR230-couldn't pass it up with the sale they had going on. If I don't reach my goals with the tr230, I'll swap it out for something bigger. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
