I actually would like it to be about 11.0-1 I think this engine will run ok
at the CR.

OH!!!!!

You want to LOWER it to 9.0-1!!!
Sorry...misunderstood you, Larry.
Apologies.

Oh, yeah. 12.0-1 is racing gas territory
today. Oh for leaded Gulf No-Nox or
the Sunoco "260" of yesterday....100+
RON...."manly" octanes!!! )

Bill (he oughta know?) recommends no
higher than 9.0-1 with the stock cast
iron head using today's unleaded hi-test.

Normally, you can run a full
point higher with an alum. head on the
same octane with the same "safety factor"
(against detonation/pre-ignition) with the
same ign. advance, according to my
mech (30+ year "pro" mech).

But Bill's forte is Series A's so I'd check
with him, were I you. He's pretty
conservatively on the "safe" side when
it comes to total ignition advance so I
would ass-u-me he'd be so when it comes
to CR on today's unleaded octanes, as
well.
