alright, after much deliberation, i've decided to keep and rebuild my '66 326 for my '67 tempest.
i'll be checking to make sure that it has the 10.75:1 compression ratio that my clymers says, and if it doesn't, i'll bump it up to that. i'll also be replacing cam, piston rings, ect... normal stuff for rebuild.
i know that it depends on many variables, but how much torque/hp do you think i'll be making? i'm just looking for a ball-park (200-250,250-300,300-350,ect)
im going to be keeping my 2 speed automatic trans, and since it's old and crappy, how much power loss will happen by the time it sees my wheels? looking for a ballpark here also.
another thing, is there a certain way to determine compression ratio when you have compression psi from a cylinder?
thanks in advance
