I've been studying this compression ratio thing VERY closely lately. I'm going to reduce my 12.5 to about 9 something.

It seems that if ALL OTHER things are equal and ONLY the compression is reduced MY motor will loose about 150 horse power. Down from 667.

Kind of blew me away how important compression can be in developing high horse power. I'm pretty sure 500 plus will still be enough.
