What would be the ideal C/R for SC? I was thinking lower then 10:1?

Are the guys with SC 3L's using stock pistons?






I am in no way an expert, but to be on the safe side, I would not any car with boost without using forged internals. The stock crank shaft is good to use with you application. However, I would definitly get forged rods and pistons. Also, from what I've been told, using a CR that high is just asking for trouble.

Also, is there a reason why you want to go S/C over T/C? Just curious.
