Default Compression Ratio w/ 70cc AFRs - ?

What is the formula for calculating the compression ratio with the larger CC heads?

I hope this allows for more boost.

Stock heads are 64cc I'm pretty sure, so those heads will lower compression all other things left untouched.

you should drop about one tenth of a compression point for every cc. an ls2 would be about 10.4 to 1 with those heads.

I found some web sites that do the calculations for you.

70cc 10.17:1
72cc 9.95:1
76cc 9.53:1

It seems that bumping the cc is a good way to lower compression and allow for more boost.

as you can see your dropping about one tenth of a point for each cc you increase. the stock ls6 head is 65 cc. everything else the same, gasket etc you should be right around 10.4
