Just ordered the Livernois 20 degree limiters, waiting on the 2013 GT500 oil pan and pickup with windage tray.
I'll post up my complete build list one last time before I get started, I want you all to look at it and tell me if I am doing anything stupid
I'll call Livernois this week to make sure the springs I have will work well with my cams and their limiters.
I've decided to run the 11.5:1 Mahle pistons I already own and run low boost at around 9 PSI.
Bruce H who's the 3v eng guru on S197, I believe runs 12:1 on his 3v..with 91 octane E10. Forget how much boost he has with his whipple.
Bottom line would be to just use the correct timing for the type of fuel used. With your proposed 11.5:1 CR, it will run great when in NA mode, which is most of the time. Are you going to stroke it to 302 CI at the same time, or leave it at 281 ci ?
