i thought i was the one asking the questions , well thats how the kid wants to sell it, and i am wondering what the compression would be, with ls crank it would be around 12, and i was told with gsr crank it would be around 11ish, and the gsr cams in the r head is cuz the kid sold the cams then decided to stop the build and could only get gsr cams for it , but around how much compression, someone please help me out

by the way this is coptzer at a friends house on his name***

dont buy..it...first of all why would someone disgrace the type r head and trade those cams for gsr cams??? especially for an all-motor car..

also gsr crank in an ls block..??

i think that the dude you are buying it from has no idea what he put in that motor.. is the seller going for the ultimate frankenstein?

dont buy that motor...get a type r motor, or start your own LS/VTEC from scratch...

Go to the web site http://www.c-speedracing.com
They have a pretty accurate compression ratio calculator.
That might help. besides, you don't need the cam info to calculate it.
