Re: compression (omega119)

9.0:1 compression should work well and a good set of rods. I also suggest spending the extra money and sleeving the block for a good piece of mind!!

9:1 is pretty standard these days...if your goal is a max of 350-400whp, you could probably get away with something a tad higher
