Great link, BT, especially for us DIY engine rebuilders-to-be. Smile

Now, if I could just find the compression ratio for the 351C-2V. Most sources say 8.3 - 8.7 to one, give or take, but I haven't been able to find a definitive source. Sad

According to the "Shop Manual", the compression ratio for the '73 2V is 8.0:1.

Like you, I have seen other sources over the year that had conflicting values.

Hope this helps!

Well, the shop manual is about as definitive as I can find, so I'll take it. Smile

Thanks for the info, BT!
