| − | Just for grins, I calculated different static compression ratios with a 3.48" stroke and different camshaft intake closing points @ 0.050" tappet lift on Keith Black's dynamic compression ratio calculator. The calculator went ka-flooey on 8.00, so we'll start at 8.25 SCR. I kept the DCR at just over 8.0, a figure that is well accepted for operation of the motor on pump gas with a little cushion...

| − | Now, it's unclear where these Keith Black DCR calculator dynamic cr readings are taken, at cranking rpm's or at max efficiency rpm's. But I can tell you this from playing with the DynoSim, max cylinder pressures are made at or near the torque peak. So, the fact that a motor is not detonating at low rpm's does not mean that it will not detonate at or close to the torque peak.

| − | These numbers may not mean anything at all, but they do illustrate that you cannot just pick a cam out of thin air like a lot of fellows do and expect it to work best for your particular combination.
