Besides the double hump heads are there any other differences between the 2 engines?
They are both 10.5 to 1 compression. What modern fuel will they run on? Do the valve seats have to be redone for survivability?
The corvette 327 is 11:1- what modern fuel do they run on?
thanks
gary

garygbNJ welcome to Super Chevy.
Is there a reason you need to have the engine specs? If so I'll dig them up for you.
Does the NJ in your name garygbHJ mean New Jersey. If so there are a couple guys on the Super Chevy site from there...

i would say yes, you need hardened exhaust seats for todays unleaded gas. 11.1 is about the max compression for todays gas, if you have aluminum heads. cast iron,...10.1 max.

+1 Joe:
I would do both intake and exhaust valve seats. With the heavy valve spring loads it will really raise hell with the valve seats. Plus the heat of the combustion temps.
Bob Did you see any of the Dega 500?..
