Well denny I might disagree with you about the compression ratio .....Most 1965 352cid engines had 68 cc chambers and thats what makes the difference is changing the size of the area to compress , If it had 88 cc combustion chambers the percentage would drop ...You savey bigger means less & smaller means bigger !!!! On the intake side Its simple to realize that the head moving down deeper in the block that the distance across the top gets shorter but the intake manifold is still as wide as before...You can find a thin head gasket of course. Now you may not get a vacum leak but the rule of thumb is 10 for 30 around the redneck crowd I run with here in south Texas ...Not going into all that swept volume or clearence volume You take a 352 with 78.4 cc chambers and 8.4 to 1 compression ratio can jump to 11 to 1 with 63cc chambers thats only 15 cc difference for a 2.6 to 1 increase ...OK tyler if you need any parts just get back at me I've got FE stacked up around here knee deep ......Rusty .
