Default LQ9 63cc
I have TEA stage 2 heads at 63cc I want to bolt on a lq9 engine with a trick flow .585"/.585" lift 228*/230* cam. Is this too much compression for 93 octane?

OP, what head gaskets will you be using?

97Camaro383, are you running a LQ9 or LS1?

I'm still looking for the lq9 I wasn't sure if 63cc would be too tight or I would go with the lq4

A 63cc with the regular GM gaskets should be fine, but with a thinner cometic gasket i'm not sure
