blanco25 Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 thats fine compression if you want to run alky and drag race. Its not going to be to reliable though. What kind of riding are you doing? I believe I have 18cc and im at 2300 feet and im at 180ish psi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joejr915 Posted April 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 I'm. Doing drag with 112 octance vp. I think that's too much compression Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blanco25 Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 call the guy in my sig kevin from herr jugs. have him cut you some domes, and give you some advice. But I have heard before people running compression higher than that before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krispy05shee Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 To much compression can accually hurt you, causes the motor to work against itself, I run 21cc cut 9 degrees, my compression is around 160, squish is about 49 thou. id try a lil higher cc domes and get your comp down and see if you get any better results.

sleeper06 Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 19cc will put you in the 190s,20s low-mid 180s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firebanshee Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 All that compression will def kill your over-rev,i use to rattle plugs loose with 18cc domes on alky, i put in 21cc domes and pumped about 180ish at sea level and my bike ran alot harder and ALOT more reliable. You should lower your compression and run more timing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Couldn't agree with you guys more. I like to stick to 165 to 185 Cranking compression and add timing, it's easier on the bottom end and...it's easier to adjust timing than it is compression. As said, that much compression is killing overrev and top end. Shoot for 180ish. With your setup, probably a 20cc domes is what I would shoot for. Are you flat dragging, hill shooting, duning, etc?

rubberneck Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Sounds pretty consistant, i kick 180 at sea level with 20s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee332 Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Gary I run 19cc cut domes in my cub. 175 pounds compression. Im going to bump it up to around 185-190 this year and see if it helps. The domes you had in it before was killing your topend. We run 500 feet. If those dont work let me know I can hook you up with getting a custom set cut for your set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
