I have a fresh build on an '06. first bore on cylinders with new weisco pistons and rings. Mild port by McDermott (formerly trinity). T5's, VF3 reeds, stock carbs, stock airbox (no lid) and cool head (currently 19cc domes), 150psi on both sides at 1430 elevation. No timing advance yet.
I don't really understand the correlation of compression and race gas (VP 110) and the impact of the current compression. I have heard conflicting info on compression and the need to run race gas as well as compression and losing horsepower at a certain point.
Many years ago I was running everything above only change was a stock head that was milled. I ran pump gas and all was fine. Now I have this cool head and can't figure out what domes I should be running for optimal compression and horsepower.
