Re: solid lifter cam experts please
IMHO, You only have two ways to raise compression.
smaller combustion chamber or larger piston dome. I would go the head route in aluminum (allows more compression without needing SUPER grade fue)l. and I would verify you pistons will give you what you want before commiting to them.
BTW, I am not against solid lift cams, I am running one in my 454 and have spun it to 7800 on several times. I am just saying to maximize your power, you need to change a few things.
The next came I get will be a roller though.
