Is it zero-deck? What is the thickness of your head gasket?

Assuming they are flat top pistons with a 64CC head volume and 9.5:1 compression, also assuming they are not zero decked (0.016 below deck)

With a 58CC cylinder chamber volume wth .039 head gasket

.021 Head Gasket
~10.4:1 for 302ci
~10.5:1 for 306ci

.039 Head Gasket
~9.88 for 302
~10.0 for 306

Mike

Edited for new Head Gasket ... sorry
