Rick----It is confusing to try to follow the Comp. Prep. Manual in the
area of figuring out how much to mill off to achieve a certain
Compression Ratio. You are certainly in the ball park with your number
of 3.40. My figures came out to 3.415 but this doesn't seem to be an
exact science. Only decking the block and c.c.-ing the head will get one
closer to what the CR really is. Much to much work to go thru for just a
street-prepared engine.
