    The cam:
    .498 .480 lift with 1.6 rockers
    200 206 dur @.050
    112 LSA
    108 IC

    Pistons have a 3.6cc dish
    I don't know the exact head chamber volume, but the machinist said a good rule of thumb is a 5cc loss of chamber volume for every .010" of mill.
    THat nets me roughly a 49cc head volume.

    It is hard to calculate exact compression because I don't know the exact head chamber volume, and our pistons stick about .010" up above the block deck at TDC...Wierd. Desktop dyno says I have between 10.85:1 and 11.0:1 compression.

    It still runs fine on premium pump gas. I will have to wait till almost 4000 rpm before the n20 kicks in though.
