I beg to differ...........but I already know what works (on the street), and under 6000 rpm and on a limited budget.

Also forgot to add in "my recipe"(post #14) that I used factory head gaskets........which measured .062" in thickness !!

The typical Felpro #1016 I believe are .035".

No telling what the final CR ratio was on my build.

I agree . FWIW Felpro 1016 are advertised as .039 crush thickness with 9.6 cc volume.

Also agree roller cams will make BIG power with SD heads.
