You also have plenty of mods to support your cam though. What's the compression bump with the TFS 205 heads?

I believe with our Pistons it's about 11:1. I was running thinner head gaskets at 11.3:1 with the old setup but I was retarding timing too much to make any benefit from those.

Yeh I kinda regret not bumping to 10.5-11:1 when I did my heads for the 214/220 cam im running right now. Perhaps if I ever get a set of the TSP PRC 5.3 heads though I will run the slightly smaller combustion chambers to bump it up a bit.
