Will a stock GSR head hold on a 12.1 compression ratio block?

What do you think?

 

What wouldn't "hold" on it?

 

I think he is referring to the gaskets,in that case as long as they are made to do so,sure. I wouldn't see why not...Other then that WTF did you use "hold on" ?

 

Good point...lol

Well I heard someone telling me that the compression would be too high, you'll blow head gasket or something.

So your saying no problem putting a stock gsr head on a 12.1 compression ratio gsr block?

Well, as you just stated yourself, the only thing that potentially wouldn't "hold on" would be the gasket, which doesn't have anything to do with the head itself (unless the sealing surface is warped or otherwise damaged, but that's a different issue). You'll be fine with a stock head and gasket, but make sure you have the setup properly tuned.

 

Thank you very much

 

sounds stupid, but it happens all the time.....make sure you use high enough octane fuel
