I have a set of 70cc LS6 #243 casting heads with stock valve sizes that will go on soon, and I'm trying to figure out how much I could mill these heads with my TSP 228 228 .588 .588 cam straight up. I don't want the PV issues.. I know that with the stock #317 heads(71.06cc) the compression is 10.0:1.. I want to run between 10.8:1 - 11.0:1..

Thanks for the info.

I come up with 10.8:1 using a stock head gasket and a non ported LS6 head.

Run the Felpro 1041 gasket and you'd have roughly 11.05:1 and a tighter squish area.
