The OP's motor will be somewhere in the lower 9:x CR
Whats LOW to you?
I have YET to see a 7.6-8.8 CR engine overheat unless it was a severely smogged and fouled up engine, way out of tune.
This isn't a RACE build.... like many here in "Street" tend to push builds too.
Heat is a concern at his location, and there are options for that.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
