383 compression

[Mopar Vinnie]

I have a 1964 383 with stock dish piston with a edelbrock performer intake and a summit racing camshaft k6400. My question is is my compression ratio going to be to low or run as is.

Too low, nope. But likely pretty far from ideal

 

[65-440]

Why not just put a gauge on it and find out where it's at?

My old 1965 383 with the same piston in decent condition tested at 130s something all around warm.
To kinda give you a ball park number.

Ahh gotcha

Never seen a stock dish in that year?
