Sorry about the hijack. Lloyd recommended the Imp head gasket for my setup. That will put you close to the range you are looking since the deck height on your bottom end is stock. I will run the numbers for you tonight

FWIW you can't get enough compression on the stock bottom end without serious head milling. You will be around 11:1 with a stock short block, imp gasket and the LE heads.

Awesome, that is almost exactly where I wanted to be with the IMPY head gasket (11.1). What do you think my peak rpm point will be with this setup ? I'm thinking it will have to turn 6800 ish to make peak #'s. Thanks, Mike
