DYNAMIC compression is guestimated at 11.43:1 Static is up around 13.2:1 so I see what you mean there.

Ran some tests on my desktop dyno, and with 1.7 rockers, and the cam retarted 4* is when it made the best power. 579HP at 7000. With the 1.6 rockers, and the cam at 0*, it's making 573HP at 7000.

So Me thinks due to the close tolerances on those pistons, and we're only talking about 6 HP, I'm gonna go straight up on the cam, and 1.6 rockers.

Sound logical?

Here she is all "mocked" up:
