that is alot of compression for stock rods dude.... and to go to 8k i would think you would have to have some head work done.. like better valve springs and retainers or something. but im not positive on any of this. i mean. i have a d16z6 on 10psi... so how ever much compression that makes? on stock rods...could be more.heh. i would like to know how to make it dafe to redline at 8k though

yes standard rod can take 8k rpm for a while.

how high of c/r on 92 octane will depend on many things, from head design to ECU/ignition timing, fuel setting to overall design of the pistons and the combustion chamber

check http://www.crower.com they offer many race cams as well custom made cams if you want more lift or duration then you see.

If you're going to run that high of compression ratio, get it tuned to be on the safe side.

Why? Take that money and get a DOHC and go faster. SOHC rods are weak.

I will be running about 11:1 compression with LS rods and a6 pistons. I wouldnt trust the d-series toothpicks past 7k rpm's.

So are the DOHC rods. That's why I bought Eagles.
