Not too much, originally I wanted to go 12:1 compression, but I will end up with 11.5:1 compression. I run spray on the car and I didn't want to find the oct limit of E85.

Hey I need some advice. I really want to swap the rear end gears around June or so, but I also know I want to add boost to this setup somewhere very far down the road. Should I go with 3.55 or 3.73 with these plans in mind? I think I could use a bit more pep than my 3.31s have to offer.
I have 3.73 in my car and I want to go back to 3.31. My Hoosier QTP's spin badly at the track. I might need to work on the suspension a bit. I have a full bolt-on BMR suspension minus front struts and I can't get this car to pull a decent 60ft, it spins first gear and the bottom half of second gear.
I installed 295 Pirelli winters that I picked up with my rear wheels shortly before I installed the camshafts, and now I cant hook if the roads are wet. I may not pursue the 3.73s then, especially since I am keeping this car and it will see boost one day.
Does anyone know how to port a CJ manifold, or where a good guide is?
There is some pretty good info in this thread, long thread but worth the read.

I got a couple graphs back, two of which are when the car was heat soaked. I have an appt to put the car on a dynonet style dyno to settle the debate. I plan on porting the cj manifold before the appt.
It says the pic is too big to post on here. I'll try shrinking it when I get home. In the end it's just a number. I'd like to see the differences between dynos out of curiosity at this point. There are too many inconsistencies for me to base performance off dyno numbers, they just seem like a good way to boost egos

There were 7-8 pulls, and I have seen graphs from 3. The shop said one of the pulls made close to 440, but I have not seen it. The final pull was 415. This pull was halfway through the process.
There was a significant volume change with this setup, but I also installed exhaust cams as well. There was no change in lope
Why is the curve so damn awkward in the beginning?
I have the manifold uninstalled, and I am about to start porting. I have the general idea from Drew's pictures, but does anyone know what style dremel bits I should start out with, and progress towards?
