Ok, I went back through the list archives and and found a post from 2002 when I rebuilt and installed Sophy's engine. In the post I note the compression of the new engine at 7.7:1, not 8.5:1. I would trust the post I made then versus wheat I remember now. In my defense, it was 10 years ago. <G> I also was likely confusing the Sophy current engine with the new 2.0L engine which is at 8.5:1.
Sorry for the confusion.
