351W Compression Ratio
 

I have a '69 351W with stock heads (I need the Performer RPM heads BAD, but no $$$), a Performer RPM intake, a 750 Edelbrock carb, a Performer RPM cam/lifters/valve springs. I need to figure out about what my compression ratio is. Do any of you have a guess? I'd also like to know about what my horsepower is at the flywheel and what it is at the rear wheels. If possible, I would just go to a dyno somewhere. But there is not one in the town I live in and I have no clue as to where the closest one is. So I'm kind of stuck. Any replies would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone.

compression ratio isnt something anyone can tell you. there is a formula for it, with many variables involved. Im sure you could find it on the web. Try corral tech info. i think they have the formula.

I have a '69 Windsor in my '88 and I did a lot of research about these motors. What I found was the 2 bbl motors were 9:5.1 comp. and the 4 bbl motors were 10:7.1. Mine started out as a 4 bbl motor and I had the 1.84 / 1.55 valves in the heads with flat top pistons. That's how I knew it was a 4 bbl motor. My Windsor is now .030 over with forged pistons, ported/polished stock heads, screw in studs w/guideplates and a .536 - .293 solid lifter cam. I'm running a victor intake with a 750 double holley. Runs excellent. 11.40's so far in the quarter with 2500 stall, and 3.73 rear gears.
