Compression Ratio

Building a "too hot to farm" 510 ci motor with a 2.8x3 charger with a tight exhaust housing 3000 rpm. Have had a lot of discussion on compression ratios. Currently it is at 16:1 been told by some we need to loosen it up because of the increased boost pressure some are saying need to tighten it up. Just curious where some of you guys are at with yours. |

I'd say that with the turbo that are running and the fact you are 3000 rpms, I'd say that you are in the ballpark. Just my opinion. |

Thanks for the response. Tough to get much information for the guy that still wants to do his own work and learn. |

I would agree with that depending on what kind of camshaft he has. |
