    Default Raising the compression

    Does anyone have any guesstimate prices for getting some headwork done to an ecotec? pretty much thinking of going a cam over roller rockers but just wanna see how much its gonna cost to get the compression up first.

    I can't offer you advice on cost, however i don't imagine it would be very expensive to have the heads machined down. I'll be interested to hear how you get on with your project, i'm doing the same.

    its a tough desicion whether to go cam or rockers just because im not building a supercar just want a little bit more power, but then i love the lumpy sound of cams. i might start calling around and getting some quotes. does anyone know how much i should raise the compression up if i was to say put a stage 2 or 3 cam?
