yes they are just locked them up . but woud still put me at 11.62 if i did the math right and .040 hed to piston . but they are for stell heds afr sed not to use so i am trying to find some a little biger and cant in let they are custom or .039 wich is 11.29 and is .050 hed to piston a little to big i think wich i coud find one inbetweninbetwen

 

Cometic could make pretty much any thickness you want, the only downside is the price.

 

you are right

 

i think i am going with the .029 wich will give me a 11.52 and a dinamick of 8.745 a little high but i drove in Javier97Z28 car it was bad *** it flyes . i relly appreciate the ride and you have one bad *** ride .

 

385 LE 2.2 11.8:1 static. I run a 180 stat and BP 92 octane with no K/R and 13:1 AFR. I got stuck in a town recently that only had 91. I drove home, pluged in, and went for a drive. I did get K/R in 5th gear when I went W.O.T. from 2500RPM, but that is it. From a stop(without slicks) I went W.O.T. and had no K/R. My tune seams very effective.

P.S. I do have 4.11 gears and still am getting 24MPG. I am going to 3.73's to reduce driveshaft RPM and go with N2O next year.

 

any one alse on the compreshin you are using

 

redid the math its 11.56 and 8.779 with .029. i think i will use this gasket. woud still like to here from you all on what you are using and who tuned it and how it worked out.trying to find out who is the best in fla for dino tunes and street tune with dino

 

in addition to that, for the guys that are running higher compression >11.2, are you keeping your egr stuff?

 

No problem man, glad you enjoyed the ride in the car.

GaJoe -> I haven't had EGR for about 5-6 years...

 

Nope. Lost it on the rebuild. Biggest reason I removed it....I replaced the Oil Pressure sending unit before the rebuild and the EGR Valve pissed me off.

(glad the ABS didn't get in my way!!)

 

i ordered the .029 gm gaskets to put me at 11.56 to 1 . just hope when i check the clearens on the valves .i am okay heds wher shaved to 55 cc afrs minimum 190 head shave limits intake valve is flush to head thank you every one you been a great help

 

been braking the motor in mildly hard the last 2 weeks, it pulls real hard, the tune has no knock and long term and short term are dead on with this tune from the guy that i bought the le2.2 cam front. cant wait to take it to 6500 not going over 4000 for last 2 weekends. and 5000 this week.this motor really wants to be reved . really happy with this set up and the 11.56 compretion. thank you for all your help, this motor has taken me a while to put
together and i bugged a few of you all, which I am really sorry. just wanted it done right and to all flow together the guy i got the cam from had a tune and did exactly what i did other then the rods and crank tune was a dino and data master is dead on
thank you pat

 

good to hear, and good luck with it
