318 from Down Under

Welcome! Fun project! are you sure you cut the heads .100 thousand?? Anyways, I think with some tuning and patience you have a good chance at reaching your goal. Best of Luck!
Thank you - can't wait to get to the tuning part instead of the mental bench racing part... your videos have definitely been part of the learning curve :)

Definitely cut down .100 thou and measured out at 52cc chambers - cost me MUCH less than pistons would have with the exchange rate, was really the only cheap option for compression available to me.
