I am Building another 65-66 ford mustang coup like i had in high school when I find one. I am curently Building a small block 302 that will be bored and stroked to 354 cubic inches. I was planing on supercharging the motor. OK first off I was wondering what what a good compresion ratio would be to run? I have buld motor before but only build them mild and I want to build somthing with alot of horsepower but not to wild to where I coldn't drive the car on the street. SO if you can please give me some tips and or pointers on what cranks and rods and pistons that would be could for a supercharged motor and what compression ratio I Would need to run. Thanks In advance Beans <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>94gt</b> <br /><small>Member # 3060</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,4,23,2,48,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> one of the mags ran a modular with stock and then raised compression on a dyno and then did the same with a s/c on it, the difference was insane! the higher compression certantly made a lot more power...
