oh, i thaught i added, that was @ sea level :shoothead:

 

i've heard of running smaller domes at higher elevation because your compression will be lower

Have you ever changed out the base gaskets on the cylinders or anything?

 

 

I have the same setup, 22cc domes, +4 timing and cant get why I'm running 165 - 170 compression. Tested it with like 5 different compression testers and got between 165 and 170 between all of them. I have to run race gas. The weird thing is I ran 93 on it before I realized my compression was so hi and didn't blow the engine. While testeing we remove spark plug. Open the throttle wide opne and kick about 15 times.

u should be fine with a 22 dome....

i ran my 350 motor with a shaved head.. .030 -- about 20-19 dome. +4 timing--- i ran it 50/50

but runnin a 22 dome.. u should be ok. if u notice ur plugs pushing up.. then its detonating

 

 

do a good plug check...

Does sound like 20cc domes to me ill have to take off his domes and cc them, bone stock port , i can easily lose the compression with a port job to bring himm aruond 140-145 range on those domes and who knows if those domes were cut for someone for a purpose, i never pulled jugs off bike either so who knows,stumped me and a few other people

22cc domes should be 130 psi compression, which you can run with 89 octane.

I ran all summer long with 94 octane, 20cc dome and +4 timing just over the sea elevation (Montreal area, Canada) and my top end was like a brand new with 158-160 psi

 

For the winter, I run 91 octane, 21cc dome and +4 timing (the 94 octane is hard to find)
