Yesterday when I took my block to the builder who is putting together my 572 Hemi he broached an interesting topic regarding compression ratio. He said that 700HP wouldn't be an issue on pump gas, but wondered outloud if I didn't plan on driving the car much why not go to 12.5 or 13.0 and (in his words).."make it run like a hemi should". What say the group on his thinking? Realistically the dart is going to be a toy and most likely will be driven less than 200 miles a year.

This will be a 4 speed, that currently has a 4.88 dana in the rear. Thoughts?? Thanks in advance.
