This may be my setup, but I have some concerns about my dynamic compression ratio. 93 octane is very available in my neck of the woods. I will for sure be using Patriot stage 2 LS6 style heads with 59cc combustion chambers. I cc'd them tonight and it looks like the real number in 59.5cc per chamber. I would like to go with the TR224/224 .563 112 LSA cam. This setup nets an 8.83:1 dynamic compression ratio and an 11.29:1 static compression ratio. To get these numbers I have to run the stock gasket at .055", so unfortunately, assuming I will be .007" out of the hole... I will have a quench of .048". Not terribly desireable, but seemingly it is necessary.
The ultimate question is, can I run this DCR SAFELY? All I have seen is 8.5 is safe, but is 8.83 on the ragged edge, or am I still okay.
