I have 6.0L 317 heads on my 5.3L. I think i calculated it to 8.6:1 compression. I drive mine to work all the time, all over, Drives like a dream all day long and runs decent for what it is. It sounds weak like it has 150hp driving it around town, I had people laugh at me at the track when I started it up and pulled it off my trailer.
