If you drop a piston what's another 2k down the line for a block and machine work(worst case) and you may get away with never needing the upgraded pistons.. Seems like a good gamble just make around 650 or 700 and roll the dice.

I been preaching this all along the zl1s are making more power with lower compression than the SS running the same LT4 fuel parts and the same blower..

Using the thicker Cometic head gaskets and Lt4 heads seems like the way to go.. Should get the compression to 10:1

granted you can make more power on higher compression but the need for more octane goes up so e85 and meth are needed. (and with known piston problems less compression seems smarter)
