High Compression & Pump Gas??
I've been told many times that a high compression engine (12-13:1) can be driven on pump gas as long as it does not have a heavy load on it, i.e. it's just driven normally down the street. I'm planning a 13:1 BBC project with aluminum heads and now I'm wondering if there is any truth to this? Also, if this is true what would be the max dynamic compression ratio or cranking psi, I should aim for so if I had to drive it on pump gas for a few miles it would be ok. Thanks
