Compression

[MR BILL 04COBRA]

What is the highest compression I should run on Vortech V1 S trim 5.0 fox body 89 thanks Billy

Depends on what fuel you plan to run.

Not to mention what heads you will be running.

tuning, tuning, tuning......... With the right tuning, it will be a beast. Personally Ive seen: 8.5 compression with 20lbs of boost run slower than a 9.5 compression with 11lbs of boost. Its all in the the timing, fuel and MAF tables.

Some one I know has a DSS block and forg internals level 20 block ' so short block but it has 11.8 Compression and have been told I could put thicker head gaskets on it to lower compression but did not know if that would be a weak point on motor ' block and interns for $ 2000. That's why I am asking thanks for any Help . Billy

You could run a thicker head gasket. But you're looking at dropping around 2 points of compression. If you can offload the pistons to pay for a set of lower compression pistons it might be worth it. Depends on how much everything is.
