Racer Brown ST-21

10.5 would be minimum for that cam if it really has [email protected]. That's a bungload of duration and will bleed off an equal bungload amount of cylinder pressure. But you should verify those specs. It looks like you're getting different specs from two different sources.

...and dynamic compression is also referred to as "running" compression. That simply means the compression ratio with the camshaft in consideration. Static compression is the compression ratio disregarding the camshaft. If you go to United Engine's web site, they have some nice calculators that'll keep you busy a while figurin all that out.

I have checked that out before but what does "Intake Closing Point (degrees)ABDC @ 0.050 lift plus 15 degrees" mean? 15 degrees initial timing?

I have read a lot on here in that last few weeks about guys with 10- 10.5 static compression having problems with pump gas. i know the fuel is only getting worse. but what is streetable dynamic compression?
