High compression E85 L92 headed LS2/408, suggestions/experiences?
I'm thinking of doing a higher compression Carbureted NA motor to put in a 2900# w/ driver car w/ a Jerico 4 speed. I want to use E85, carb, Victor Jr(or Super Victor if one comes out) stock crank, aftermarket rods & pistons, L92 heads, hyd roller(about 7400 rpm max I'm thinking?) Aluminum block, 1 7/8" headers. I'd like to get the compression to around 13:1. Am I going to have any cylinder sealing problems using L92's, and what would I gain using an aftermarket head at this power level? Will the stock crank be OK? What rods? Has anyone built something like this? Thanks
