i agree with 98 saleen cobra on this,
i would go with 11:1. you can still run 91 when you turn it down.

Yessir i do also agree with him.

I guess ill do between 10.5 and 11.

Should be a good setup,i have most of the parts ready for the build.soon as i get all the parts in,ill begin a build thread.

Would start it now,but i myself hate waiting on updates so ill just begin a thread when all parts are in my hands.

Thanks guys

Making the trip to san jo.im running 2 seperate fuel cells.stock tank for 91 street tune.and 15 gallon cell with triple pump in the trunk for e85 to support the 66mm turbos at 25+ psi,track tune.
And 2 55s in the garage as well.

I am working on a 10.5:1 setup currently. My last engine was 20 over 4.6 with 4.5cc dish which put it right at 9.5:1, so this go around it gets flat top pistons. Ill top it off with a set of heavily worked navigator heads and a set of custom turbo cams. Most likely Ill end up with a ported sullivan manifold and hpp upper. I run the cg fab hotside, turbonetics bb7875 and a custom 4" exhaust.
