[QUOTE="gfercaks33, post: 2720244, member: 5457"] I sent the carb off to a guy raceone85.com is his site. With switching to e85 higher octane gad was way up there around $4 I believe and e85 was new it was about $1.25 a gallon but there were only 2 stations. A lot of people talk about how corrosive and how it ruins every thing, that's not the case and most people haven't used it that say that stuff. I'm running a plastic fuel cell and steel braid, the only issue I had is if you let it sit in the carb too long it gels up and the o rings on my fuel filter became brittle when I took it off but I'm not positive that was because of the e85 . This is my first build and had a friend help. Just from the specs from the Pistons is where I got my compression and I haven't auctually ran a compression test. You were very close with the guess on the cam [url]http://www.compcams.com/Company/CC/cam-specs/Details.aspx?csid=89&sb=2[/url] Here's a pic when the engine was built so you can see the dome on the piston [URL=http://s229.photobucket.com/user/gfercaks33/media/the%20fun%20begins/IMG_0969.jpg.html][IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i229.photobucket.com_albums_ee16_gfercaks33_the_20fun_20begins_IMG_0969.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/QUOTE]
