Most people learn B-series because it's Hyped and fluent, then ASSume for D-series... when they find out otherwise, they still think in head-specific terms "except that one bolt." Uh-uh.

Re: Z6 Block w/ Y8 Head
Ok well, I did that compression calculator like the other ones and came up with similar results 12.61 to 1... I am some what of a noob when it comes to stuff like this but I just have to think that it is too high to run on regular and without a tune, if anybody has any informative links it would be most appreciated, and if you feel like flaming because my lack of knowledge then flame on.

Ok well since this is my first swap I will probably have it all ready in a week or two or three, whenever I get off my *** and do it, I will probably post up some pics, and let you guys know how it went.
