Rick- I didn't picture you as the type to hang out at the boring bar. I figured you were more for the high-class joints.

Started with .020", don't want to go nuts my first go round. I figured cutting the squish band will have more effect on compression then a popup.

Nice, wish I was with ya AL.
Oh, well. BB's are nice to play around with. But I do like having OEM to run.

Thanks.
Yes, squish band is the area of tight clearance between the piston and combustion chamber.
I suppose I could do that, It would save me some, but I would always wonder about the ported 390.
Go big or go home. If I gonna do this might as well do it right!

I agree, but if money is tight??
385's can be a real good runner ported, you'd be surprised.

Hey will is right,,,,, those 385's are no punks,,, they mod up very well,,, but if you have to have the 390 then save your money,,, get one and then get it modded,,,, you can always sell the 385 P/C and get about 1/2 of the oem 390 p/c cost back
