Pistons

By Nick - 09/12/2003 10:37:15 PM; IP 24.165.88.140

Right now with everything stock the book says I am running 9.5 compression. How do the pistons alter the compression ratio? I havent opened her up yet, but doesnt the 2bbl 390 only have 2 valves per cyl? Also What are the slugs? I am fairly new at rebulding engines and I dont know all the tech talk yet. What are the slugs?

This thread, so far...
