Re: [T3] 1964 1500S



I believe all 64 S cars got the domies... but only the german market (or
perhaps a couple other) 65's got the domies.

Compression with the domes will be in the 140's or higher
with the flat tops it will be in the 120PSI range... perhaps the low 130s.

BUT

if someone has flycut the heads and not used spacers... all bets are off.
