Just got the 915 heads on my 451, and checked the cranking compression. Getting 210 to 215 PSI on all cylinders. Also installed some Jegs Ceramic coated headers, and they fit nicely. These look just like the Patriots, but a little better price. Maybe Patriot makes them for Jegs? I am thinking they do. Only had to raise the motor 2-3 inches on each side enough to get them in there. They are well built and nicely finished.
 
Wow Gary I know you're pumped. That's a lot of cylinder pressure. That thing oughtta be a beast.
 
That's what the hemi in my 66 Charger has and it's not 100% happy on pump gas. That PSI should support a nice cam!
 
Well he's already said he has like 13.5 compression, so I don't think he's lookin for pump gas. LOL
 
headers

Run it on E85

Let me see them headers!
Yea E 85 will be an experiment for this summer. Want to see how it does with 100 Sunoco first, to get a comparison. It sounds real powerful, and will try to get some pics soon.
