Re: Pinging after 40-45 mins of driving?
If you haven't done this already, summit racing has a compression calculator you could try. As long as you know how many cc's, or close estimation, your Pistons add to the compression chamber and how many cc's your heads are, you can get a close estimation of compression.

After all you've been thru with this engine I'll bet a donut that a crate 383 is looking really good right about now ?

Re: Pinging after 40-45 mins of driving?
Yea you definately need to run 4 to 5 gallons of race fuel per tank. According to the chart I looked at 11:1 compression needs atleast 96 octane and 12:1 needs
atleast 100 octane, so you should try to get between them. How much does it cost there? Costs me $10 a gallon at the pump. Trying to get it wholesale though.
