    I was just agreeing with your 9:1 assessment given the op asking questions on forums makes him a novice and due to considerations you posted safer to err on the safe side of compression at 9:1

    Was not an attack or disagreement whatsoever :stickpoker:

    That was something people used to do to drop compression. The late 460 engines are around 8.7:1, so you really don't need to. There is also myriad of gasket thicknesses available for the 460, so you would just buy the one you need.
