So I hope the engine will last fairly long. I just checked Wiseco's online catalog and the lowest comp piston they make is 9-1comp ratio. I looked on JE's catalog and they have a piston with 8.1 comp ratio with a 70cc head. Sounds like a plan about the heads, do you ever get any used sets ?

well it is very hard for a engine to sit my blower engines is about 9 years old and i may pull it for a freshen up. i will pm you on the heads your going have to cut about 010 off the heads to get to 70 cc

Thanks Pat you have been a good help. I should be starting this build this spring so I will be in contact about heads! But overall does this sound like a good strong running build ?
