Hello
I was wondering what would be the maximum CR that could be run with 93 pump gas and NO DETONATION using:
-55cc closed chamber w2 cast iron heads -proper 0.040" to 0.050" quench with a 4" crank and dished pistons -245° @050 street solid roller with about 600 lift.
would 10.9:1 put me in PING territory??? What are the rest of the cam numbers? With the correct cam you shouldn't have issues. That head doesn't like much over a 109 LSA.

I dont have the exact cam specs, as I dont yet have the cam, but would be nice to hear what kind of cam would work best for making power and avoiding pinging at that compression and pump gas.
this is for a stout full weight 70 Challenger TA 4 speed street car on pump gas. Gearing makes a difference as well. You want to run a 3.23 gear it will be more prone to detonation. Can you post all the details?

Its going in a real TA Challenger. so its gonna be in full street trim = heavy.
4 speed trans.
3.55 gears.
Stockish sized wheel/tires. Most Likely 275 rear tires and 235 front radial tas on 7" rallyes
stock intake and six pack setup. Heads redrilled to accept stock intake bolt pattern, and intake modified to match w2 intake ports.
Stock exh manifolds, but might go with tti headers, undecided yet.
Bear in mind that I dont want to back up timing or setup distributor in a way it doesnt ping, because it would kinda defeat the purpose ofhaving the extra compression to make more power. I want to setup the engine right for max power and avoid pinging. Its just that with the heads I have and piston/stroke combo I have I am gonna end up with around 10,9:1 compression if I shoot for a zero deck and 0,040" quench with the closed chamber heads.... If it pings I will have to take heads off and install thicker cometics to lower compression. I would loose the quench effect and I guess I would just have to go with around 9,5:1 compression so it doesnt ping w no quench and iron heads.
I guess thats about it....

I have a 416" Closed Chamber W2 combo. It has dished pistons with no quench pad, it is right about 10:1 and has a big roller camshaft. It cranks 170psi and runs fine on 91, makes 580-600HP.

I run more compression and smaller cam in my 410 with magnum heads, I think youll be fine as long as your not sucking hot air right off the headers or boiling the fuel in the line running next to the exhaust or something.

Is your fuel straight gas or does it have ethanol added to it? Is the octane rating their the same as here(RO+MON divided by2) in the U.S.? All the stock 340/360 NHRA class motors I helped like 30 to 32 degrees total timing, same on the hot street motors with good gas I wouldn't run that much compression up here on our pump gas with iron heads

i'm very skeptical that 93 octane will support 10.9:1; good or bad quench. You can if the combo is right. I think the OP needs to drop his CR. He's asking a lot. He has tall gears, and IIRC he wants to run exhaust manifolds or something. Just asking too much from what he has. OP drop the CR.

Tall gear + 2.65 1st gear + stock ignition curve = problem. The same engine with 4.10 gears, a 700R4, + 9" converter will never ping.

why is it that extra load on an engine makes it ping?
Isnt pinging just because of pre-ignition and colliding flame fronts?
But I do know from experience that when there is extra load it will be more ping prone, but whats the science behind that???? volumetric efficiency increases and this increases cylinder pressure. it's all about cylinder pressure and keeping oil and water out of the chambers.

And the cylinder pressure is easily managed by spark control - which you specifically decided not to use. An engine retarded to 10 ATDC will not develop enough power to idle. The advance position is a rheostat... if you want it to be. Vizard described using an unregulated turbo @ WOT for road racing using spark advance instead of throttle 30 years ago.

But I do know from experience that when there is extra load it will be more ping prone, but whats the science behind that???? The higher gear means it wont accelerate as fast meaning more heat will build up in the chamber meaning more likely to have a hot spot and a place for the spark to start at the wrong spot and wrong time. Also the piston will accelerate away from TDC faster meaning a slightly faster than normal flame front could still be chasing the piston instead of coliding with it witch causes more pressure and a faster burn that causes more pressure and a faster burn... long story short it burns so fast it is more like an explosion and damages your engine and causes audible knock. Exhaust manifolds probably help reduce detonation as they reduce cylinder filling efficency plus there is going to be a slightly higher amount of inert exhaust gas left in the chamber that will slow down the burn of the next air fuel charge.
