FE Stroker cranking Compression
« on: December 03, 2018, 08:07:49 PM »
All:

My engine has a summer of drive time on it, maybe 1000 miles or so.
Here are the cranking compression numbers wondering what you all think.
I read that the range is most important but wondering if these #'s are decent or not for my build.

445 stroker, mildly worked Edelbrock heads (piston side), moderate hydraulic roller cam, .57 lift, Diamond domed pistons, target static compression ratio was 10.25 to 1.  Should be at about 12 degrees initial advance.

Comments?  Thanks.

1  190
2  180
3  205  (had some oil in it as valve covers were off)
4  180
5  180
6  180
7  190
8  180

Looks pretty normal to me.
