The 351 Ford should have built!!!!!!!!

Theres more to compression than just the ratio. The combustion chamber shape, the shape of the piston, and the swirl of the air also play a part. They basically made the flame front travel faster across the piston which allowed them to run a compression ratio that high on 87 octane.

A supercharger would add alot of turbulence and would affect the speed of the flame front which would probably equal disaster.
