Excellent!! I came up with the same answer.

Now, you are in a small, elite group of enthusiasts who have the knowledge to figure static compression ratio on any motor without using an online calculator. Congratulations!!!

You have the same static compression ratio I do in my 383. Now you need to learn about Dynamic Compression Ratio (assuming you are not knowledgeable already) so you can choose the proper camshaft so you can run on pump gas.

Go back to the calculator:

Enter all of your information and then plug in your rod length (5.7 inches) and the intake closing angle for the cam (61 degrees) and this will give you your dynamic compression ratio. It is much more accurate than static compression ratio in determining whether your engine will run on pump gas. As a general rule of thumb, iron headed engines should be 8.0 or less while aluminum headed engines should be 8.5 or less. If you want to read up no DCR, check out this thread:
