    the pistons are slightly dished. remember the overbore itself will raises compression probably about .1-.2 aswell. The head was CCed at 44 i believe. anyone know what the CC of a stock head is?? So i think its gonna be somewhere around 10.5:1 or maybe a little higher

    yea I'm not sure you will have to check the cylinder PSI when you get it running to see how high it is.
    I'm your local R&D nut. Fabracting, welding, tuning and breaking my stuff so you don't have to.

    Im pretty sure its only if the gasket is exposed beyond the metalic part surrounding the cylinders, say if the bore was too big for the gasket or the chamber was too big. Ive never heard of chamber welding but then again Im new to this motor building business. That setup looks gooood. Counting down the days til the shop gets done with my motor.
