Need to find out what cc heads that 10.5:1 was for. Could be 58, 60, 61. Most likely one of those three choices there. From what I have been reading lately, I wouldn't buy sh*t from AMP performance.

Click here for the stuff on Amp.

Those GT40 "Y" heads have 64cc chambers. With the 60cc chambers, that would boost you to approximately 11:1. With the 58cc chambers, it would boost you to approximately 11.3:1. But there are too many variables in the equation to be exact. Those are close though.

Well, that sucks. I just tried the link I posted. Now, you have to be a member to get in and read that story. Last week, you didn't. What's up with that?

Anyway, the condensed version of that story is too long to type. Just take our word for it, AMP SUCKS!!!
