my last Cleveland build worked out to a lower dynamic than that and it ran fine. i knew the static compression was on the low side but i never would've guessed the dynamic was that low by the way it ran. could've made a bunch more power but i might've been in the ping/high octane zone too. it never did ping on regular though!

After running it with that low dynamic CR for a few months, you will have some idea about the cam and your compression when you change the pistons.

The secondaries are opening too soon. Check with the tech help for your carb about how to fix that.
