By the way on my aluminum edelbrocks my static compression ratio is just about 10:1 and it just tolerates 91 octane. Really prefers 92-93. This is operating at low altitude (1100 ft here in Phx). At higher altitude you can go a little higher but in general I would stay at or below 10:1 esp if you have a mild cam.
