However I also found that when we cut the compression back to 10:1 the car felt stronger.

Interesting...I've always felt the L-78/L-72/LS-6 craved compression, and it seems as the compression rises, so does power (the break-over point seems to be 13:1). Case in point: Jensen's Chevelle just ran a [email protected], and he is right at 12:1, in Pure Stock form, and he is considering "Certifying" this car. Our L-72 has 10.2:1, and I wish it had 12.2:1...
