how many psi should my 2001 zetec have?
also how much can the head be milld/shaved on a pretty much stock motor, i thought i heard if you take to much you needed adjustable timing gears to compansate the valve timing.
also what is the approxamet compression ratio for the stock motor?

#722 of 6,158. Stage 3 clutch, aluminum flywheel, MSD coil and wires, C.F.M. offroad pipe, front and rear FSwerks stress bars, Mach HIDs, C.F.M. short shift/w svt knob, Volant intake
I think in the 150psi range. Not 100% sure though.
