Hey got a quick question i am building up a 302 over the winter and i was wondering if any one has any suggestions with the compression and make of their pistons and any other mods the have done i plan on making it carburated..

on a street car you don't want to run any higher than 10:1 comp. and they need to be forged. most people make nitrous application pistons

actually i'll have to agree but the ratio has alot to do with the cam.. i've seen plenty of 11:1 street cars and then some 9.5:1 setups that wouldn't work..

static compression and dynamic compression aren't the same thing.
