Generally higher numerical ratios (4.11, 3.73...) give you better acceleration and lower MPG. Lower (2.73.... yada yada yada) numerical ratios bump up your top speed.

My bad... Well, lower elevations do have higher air densities, so I am inclined to say yes.

those are great times for the mods you have.
last year I had more mods than you and could only get a 14.7 on motor, and a 100 shot got me to a 13.2

I later found out that one of my pistons had the top ring break and damage the piston

I was think about nitrous, what would that get me to? And does anyone know what .030 off the stock heads, bumped my compression to?
