5.9, max safe compression?

Exactly. You just cannot tell these young punksters that who read all the latest mags and hang on all the most popular forums.

Hell,. we were putting cams with 240* @ .050 in stock engines with intakes,l headers converters and gears almost 40 years ago and runnin 12s or better. Unported heads and all.

You just caint tell people anything.


@RustyRatRod

Your right! But we knew this and seen it proven. Hot Rod rag did a few low compression builds. They produced good power with reasonable sized cams.

A great proving point is when the craftsman trucks started up, they were limited to a 9.0-1 ratio BUT still they made 700hp.

Use your head(s)!
