two base gaskets? that is a much better idea, how much can you change things like that without doing anything to cam timing?

just to clear things up .... the 14:1 piston does not run two head gaskets ..... it run's two base gaskets . [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Thanks for clearing that up. My bad.

Bartlett,

Do you have adjustable cam sprockets??? If so where did you get them.

Hey BartlettRacing, or anybody else, have you seen any dyno runs between a "true" 14 to 1 and a "true" 16 to 1? Just wondered if there was any power difference between the two, and if so how much?

From what I can gather it should be about 2.5% per point of increase.
