STATIC COMPRESSION, OTHER QUESTIONS

WHATS A RECOMMENDED COMPRESSION FOR A WHIPPLE BLOWN, PONTIAC HEADED OUTLAW DEAL? 572 C.I. PROBABLY GOING TO TURN IT AT LEAST 55 OVER, 8000 RPMS OR SO. ITS A DOOR SLAMMER, 3 DISK, 3SPEED. WHAT ABOUT 1ST GEAR SUGGESTIONS? HAS A 4.56, 34.5 TIRES, 1/8 MILE ONLY. TIMING SUGGRESTIONS? RETARD? HAS DECENT PIECES, AND WE'RE NOT AFRAID TO LEAN ON IT SOME. OLD STYLE WHIPPLE.

 

shawn have run a chevy head bb set up 540 dart heads a few yrs ago compression was 11.2 55 over mag maalory 4 amp dash 4 pump 26 to 30 lead with 2.08 4.56 36 gy tire 2780 car 428 1-8 mile the chevy really liked timing but bottom end really isnot as happy and it really enjoyed being squeezed on the fuel . it would run if you could feed parts to it make shure it has a healthy oil psi & kendall 50 70 gt _1 hope this helps &good luck,

 

shawn not trying to change your mind , but if you have a kb olds or any block that has a cross bolted main you will be safe to lean on it we started off with 30 over just my opinion .

 

YES, ITS A NEW CENTURY, CROSS BOLTED, WE'VE RUN THE COMBO ALREADY, HAD DECENT PERFORMANCE SO FAR.
JUST ADDED A MAG 44, SAW REALLY NO DIFFERENCE.
