    Nice work chuck! Maybe try some 91 octane! what did your compression ratio come out to be?

      best i can figure is somewhere around 9.4 or 9.5:1. a bit higher than i had hoped, but the machine shop did say that the deck wasn't exactly flat

        Thanks for the "teaching" cbremer Scarey enough I do understand what boring an engine is, the rest is just way above me now.

          Sweet man! Glad you got it together and all is well. IIRC the compression ratio of the Accurate Power kit is like 9.4:1 or so? That alone will require at least midgrade to ensure no pinging under any circumstances. If it is ok under most circumstances but worse when you short shift it a bit and lug it then octane should solve the problem. Otherwise it could be lean? But I think the 24 lb/hr injectors should be plenty of fuel...
