Like the CR of the V6 engines for beginners.

[b]For the record

9.7:1CR standard
10:1CR (98,98.5,99 SVT)
10.25:1CR (00 SVT) - and they have no supercharger kit available!

So I went a little search NAZI (Big deal - I'm due my turn wink ) He should have started there IMO. He's been on the board for 2 years and doesn't even do any leg work himself or even seem to know about any of this??? Yet he's planning to do major modification to his car??? confused

Hey Hooked - What advice did you chime in with?

I atleast let him know about the fact the website has a search feature (BTW - not too mention a Forced Induction forum & 3L forum!) he could use to gather more information.
I also let him know that longer duration cams would take to higher CR better.

And don't tell me you didn't just pop in for my benefit! (ahem first real post in 7 months - August)
Gee thanks for the special attention but go back and hide under that unturned rock. There's a reason it's been left unturned BTW... eek :p [/b]
Hey, I'm new to the boards also and am already sick of the smart azz remarks from this guy. Dude you may know alot about cars(or maybe not) but if you don't have anything constructive to add then why don't you just shut up.

If you actually read his post, you'll note that he DID in fact provide some good information, as well as some smart @ss remarks about searching. Once you want to chime in something constructive, you can start telling people to shut up.

Ahhh, must be the end of March. You know what that means:

1.) Somebody is gonna whine about being told to search

2.) Other people are gonna agree he should have searched

3.) Some more people are going to disagree he should not have been told to research it on his own. That we should have just given him the answers.

Now, if you guys are gonna whine, moan and complain about being told to search, I have a simple equation for you: You + Your pie hole = Shut it.

You think this is bad, why don't you go look at the rules listed over on the Team NABR boards. You wanna talk about harsh. #1, you have to fill out a form, essay and all, to join. #2, you must know a member in order to join, and it cannot be a FNG. #3, If, and I say if, they let you join, you better be ready to prove you have gone through the archives using search to find an answer. You have to post links to the searches you did. Now, if you decide to be a dumb dicker, and start posting bullshizzle, you will get booted. The person who vouched for you will also get booted.. So why even bother with those boards if the guys are gonna be dicks? Simple. They know their stuff! There is no other outfit for DSM info with as much knowledge as these guy. Trust me, I know. That site was started by all the guys from DSM Talk that were tired of the n00bs, and veterans alike, asking redundant questions. So the brain trust of DSM Talk bailed, started their own site, and made their own rules.

So before you think you have it so bad becasue you are told to search, think about how easy you have it. Thank you for your support...

4.) Someone will mention it should have been posted in the Forced induction forum.
