I'm still hashing over compression ratios. I've been reading online that these motors don't or won't run compressions as high as 9:1 without taking extra steps. Like aluminum cylinders or electronic fuel injection. Mainly just because of the heat involved.
Has anyone "got away" with running higher compressions like this on stock cylinders? *** IF anyone has any feedback on what fuel grade they are running at their higher compression and if they are getting any knocks ect... I would also greatly appreciate that information too. Thanks everyone! James |
