I've gone for the 10.25:1 as although there were some negative comments nobody actually said they'd blow up one's motor, burn down the house, rape chickens and bite the heads off virgins :)

I'll run super-unleaded and even a dollop of octane booster (this is for my Harris Magnum so I'll not be touring on it!) and see how I go.


Mine was gas flowed head, std cams, RS36 carbs (which are NOT too big!) and she pinked a bit at wider "laboured" throttle openings at lower revs .... but did that for the 10 yrs I owned her with no problems.... also had a fair bit of thrashing at the 1/4 mile, etc :wink:
What times were you getting ? just out of pure interest ?

Best was 11.5 @ 120mph. If it had some nice cams (.395 would have been ace) I'm sure with some decent practice could get her into the 10's - go on Paul :twisted:

Paul, its was only really under load - larger throttle & lower revs..... may even be a bit of carbon build up making it worse :wink:
