With the pistons 1.310" down in the hole, the SCR would be about 2.78:1.

Plus the low oil pressure from the extra bearing clearance helped gas mileage too.

In regards to the many deiscrepancies that everyone seems to have...I have to say " if the computer says so, it must be". I think George Orwell may have coined that.

Especially at Auto Zone, so, when I need a gasket (they usually have all the Fel Pros in stock) for my 331 race moder, I just tell the rocket sciencetist behind the counter I need a part for my 1990 5.0 Mustang, then I get the gasket with no hassles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ever try assplaning to an idiot what a 331 Stroker is??????, You better not have anything else planned for a while!!!!!!!!!!

I would have guessed about 4 to 1, didn't have time to calculate it out.........You wouldn't need much of a starter to turn that thing over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
