Will I have to buy higher octane than pump gas if the compression is over 10cr..????... maybe I should use the aluminum heads on my 1969 vert 400 block and replace the # 6X heads on my 1968 firebird w/ a 1974 455cu.in in it with the #48 heads to jack the compression up on it...
I suggest buying Jim Hands book on engine rebuilding or a Chiltons manual or Sunnens guide to engine machining before you try to "jack it up".
You'll jack it up allright. The wrong way.
