what do you guy's think i sould run? this is going to be my build. 051 block, (nightrider's) pontiacs, 3.75 strocker crank, custome cam, rpm intake manifold, rpm oil pan, oliver rods or carrilo rods, bs3 ecm, you get the pic. the truck is going to be tt thinking t58 or 60-1. should i go 8:5:1 or 9:5:1 i would like to use the truck during the summer and park it in the winter since i live in ny. i was talking to nightrider and he suggested to go 9:5:1 so that the turbo's would spool up faster, which would make sense but i would like some opion on it. i'm not tring to be the fastest ty out there and would like to drive the truck around. i would like to know so that i can tell my builder what compersion i'm looking for. thanks guys and girls. if there are any girls on here.lollol for got to ask! you guy's running the 051 block where did you put your knock sensor? i was thinking of putting it where the stock one is at, just have to drill the hole for it.

Re: compersion ?

9.5 to 1 would definately help spool up and make more power with less boost

so 9.5 gets my vote
