Hey BC,

I like what your doing with your build, this is going to help you tremendously.

Check any info you may need here:

I have flat tops in my stock engine with 76 cc heads. I can dial so much advance into it, most would call me ridiculous. With the domed pistons you will be into different territory.

The one thing that concerns me is you have as much as 2 cc of differences in each chamber. My instinct does not like that with a higher compression engine. Keep in my your dynamic compression is what will dictate true running compression with the cam selection you make.

My next build I want a bottom to mid range torque monster. With that in mind for a truck engine 2 topics came up with fellow engine buddies. Volumetric Efficiency, and Camshaft effective duration. A roller cam allows for more effective duration by design with less wear and tear.

I want the most out of the motor without all the hp hype. That just tears up a motor. Will like to see how your build turns out.
