Re: Trying to stay on pump gas...

Back in the day I built a 400 with 10.5 compression , but what made the difference was running "Brodix" Aluminum Cylinder heads , My machine shop guy told me this trick and it worked. Running an Aluminum Head pulls Combustion temperatures down enough to help any detonation problems.
