So, umm, What would my compression ratio be in my 327, using TRW Flat Tops w/4 valve reliefs, Steel head gaskets (replaces original) and GM Performance Parts Cyl Heads with 64 CC chambers, 170 CC intake runners?
BTW I run on midgrade pump gas which is 89 octane, 650 CFM Edelbrock, retarded the timing, and I am at about 5300 feet above sea level.
