    Ouch - 5cc relief and 64cc heads looks like you'll have closer to 11:1 compression ratio. I think cam wise you'll be looking at 242-245 degrees at.050 which will make this thing a dog on the street unless you put some really tall gears (like 4.11 or 4.56) and plan on a stall converter in excess of 3,000 - 3,500 may be better..
