Re: Head CC Help Please (Bill79)
I believe te stock heads are 76cc. Comprision is about 8.5:1. The pistons are dished so going to 64cc heads will bring up your CR to about 9.5:1 which will still run on pump gas and improve your total performance.

I would suggest 64 cc head to get around 9.5 to 1. That with a nice cam and you're in buisness. The vortec head are really nice but since you already have your intake, it won't fit.

There is an outfit in IL that sells rebuilt 58cc heads complete and ready to install starting at a bid of 329.00 (I think), on EBay I just got a set last week. They are guaranteed for 1 yr........58cc will get ya up to abt 10 or so, and leave a few bucks in your pocket besides...... :cheers: :cheers:

I am partial to the XE256, myself, which seems just SLIIIIGHTLY hotter. Not worth the cash to change, though. Others may have better ideas.
