J&E pistons make 10.5:1 CR pistons..

http://www.jepistons.com/ they make 9.0:1 as well.

also, you almost have to have higher octane levels for an FI'd engine...slower burn, higher compression...

According to that site's calculator, my compression boost should have yielded about 5 horse. Instead, I'm still several horses short.

I really do have to fix the damn intake cam timing one of these days...

i was just pondering it its alot easyer to go all motor with a lil shot of nos rather than screw with a turbo or a supercharger

that's my plan if i keep the car for long enough, all motor pushing around 250hp (hopefully, gonna cost more than a turbo, i know) and then 100hp shot of nitrous. with raised compression from new heads, the car will FLY.
