    The mounts on the cooler are kind of flimsy. I'm going to take some 1/4" round bar, smash the ends, drill holes in it, and use it as a brace behind the cooler to keep the vibrations down.

    I hope so, it'll sit in storage for a while before I do anything with it

    I don't want to use the 64 buick heads, so I won't be following the same formula as the article above

    I went through a bunch of piston cataloges and all of the off the shelf stuff is a compromise in compression ratio or odd overbores

    so it looks like custom pistons...

    If I use the buick 5.964" rods I need a compression height of 1.3, 25CC dish
    If I use the rover 5.66" rods I need a compression height of 1.6, 25CC dish

    The long rod would be better, but the 5.66 are way more common if the buick rods turn out to be crap.

    Long rods! More dwell time= more torque.

    so the forged rods and 12cc 305 pistons work out to about the stock CR

    concerns:
    piston is about .090 further below deck height than stock (around .065)
    rover pins press in to the connecting rod, I think GM does it differently. may require machining piston
    will require reaming connecting rods to bigger diameter
    requires .035 overbore from stock, may require resleeving the block
    cast pistons vs stock hyperkickasstectic
