11.14:1 with a LS3 4.100" x .053" gasket and 65cc 4" bore TFS 220's. This would be a real nice set-up. The as-cast 220's are just a little less head than the CNC 215's I have.

Good for power adder, these are Hellfire rings, they are 'tempered' ductile iron.

I would be all over this if the compression was lower. Just to high for a turbo motor.

I just came on here tonight looking for a 402 for the new Camaro. I blew a head gasket and figured I would sell the Lingenfelter shortblock that came in the car and go after something a little more potent.

Any idea what the setup would do power wise with the heads you mentioned?

Just my .02 but I have seen the work Tim does and it is beautiful. Anyone that get something he has done will be VERY happy.

Good Luck!!!

Bill

What would be compression with stock L92 heads? Trying to find a way to get compression down to 9.5 or so without changing pistons and this would be perfect.
I am near St. Louis too.
Or how much would you charge to change the pisons to a more boost friendly setup?
PM me if you need to
