high static compression boost E85???? okay, have a few qusetions that have been confusing me a bit here, so basically right now i have a 332 SBC (.030 327) currently have +5cc dome pistons bringing me to appox 10.4:1 compression static. now figuring in my cam specs, which was a poor desicion at the time of my XS282 cam this brings my Dynamic compression ratio way down.

Thinking I am a bit lower than I wanted to be when running this thing N/A
Now I am going to be starting a EFI swap with LS coils and engine managment by the holley HP or Dominator ECU.. quesiton is will I be able to run low boost on this setup.. may 7-8 psi seems like with a lower dynamic compression ratio I may be able to get away with running low boost on E85. I belive my cranking cylinder pressures were around 165-175 if i remember right anyone have any insight on this, seems like It may work out pretty good because of the faster spool out of a higher compression may just have to be conservative on timing and boost.. maybe im just being optomistic because I want more power
