I remember someone saying the 074 heads made about 8.5 comp with closed chamber heads. Someone said 10.0 with closed 11.0 pistons. Which is closer? We are doing this with a 30 over L72 short block. The car has the makings of a nice street brawler but no more to me.

in the case of a LS6 crate engine #366250 from the 80's-90's- it had closed chamber piston with open chamber head. compression was listed as 10.25.

Exactly which pistons are you using?

[Emo1956]

I can't believe he relisted that car for that price ! Who would be so stupid to buy it for that price. It must run real good missing the choke stove in the manifold !! lol lol  So many things wrong with that car !

[Kelley W King]

A little late but we are using the factory type 30 over 11.0 to 1 pistons Bryon.

I will check and try to respond back via pm.

and which head gasket?
GM steel shim is about .022" thick.
Felpro composite gasket is about .039" thick.
other factors: piston deck height, head chamber cc's.

I actually might believe it is an L89 car. But the affidavits never say what drivetrain survived. Add Mark Young to the mix and the car becomes questionable.
Axle might be real.....
Car was for sale before.

[bertfam]

Kurt, are you saying that pad is a factory stamping??

Ed

[dannystarr]

That's what I was just saying to myself. The edge of the pad area looks smooth like it has been cut. Numbers all up/down and sideways. Would like to see the paint gone and close-up of that area. I am still learning, but I would stay away. Danny

[KurtS]

Nope.
I think the car may be a L89. But that pad is a restamp as is the trans. I think the axle could be original.
