Cometic also makes one. Stock is .030" for every .040" thicker your comp will be lowered by 1 cr. But if your cr is 9.5:1, I agree with not getting one. A build ls block would be better imo. If you're on a budget, maybe some tuner toys rods and shop around ebay for some pistons (9:1 cr seems to work really well for most). GL.
