So it seems the dynamic compression will only be .1 lower with the stock head gaskets in my new engine than my old engine. If I went with the single steel shim head gasket I would be nearly .5 higher and since I am borderline on my compression already and now with less overlap with the 5.7 cam to dilute the charge I will be using the stock gaskets.
I really wish we had e-85 local, I would have put in a set of SRT pistons AND run the thin head gasket.
I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!
