I should be receiving an assembled aluminum head and 4bbl intake in a few weeks, I'm planning on installing it on my stock bottom end (1970 Maverick) that was rebuilt .030 over about 80k ago. The aluminum heads online are supposed to be 50cc +-1, with my calculations online compared to my log 62cc head should change my CR from 8.7:1 to 10:1? Does that sound right? I'm looking for some advice on the head gasket that I should use with this because I don't want to go much over the 10:1 if possible.
Secondly, I've been seeing some of the 1.65:1 RAU setups on here, and I'm thinking about doing that as well, but once I rebuild the motor I'll be using a pretty tall camshaft and I don't know if the new higher ratio rocker arms would be too much with a big camshaft and I'd have to replace them back with stock?
Thanks! I'll be posting more as I receive the goodies!
