Quench Question?

    So I'm trying to figure out if a larger than normal quench for N/A purposes is detrimental in a supercharged application? I'm currently running a MLS gasket with a .038" compressed height on a zero decked chevy small block 350(.030 over) with 64cc chamber heads and flap top pistons with 7cc of valve reliefs for a static CR of a little over 10:1. I recently picked up a used E-force(MP122) supercharger kit on Ebay and with a little modification, and the fact that the previous owners did me a solid and had the pressed on shaft changed to a two piece SC pulley bolt on, got it to work with my GM serpentine belt system. So I digress. Will increasing the quench area to .060" be detrimental to this supercharged application?

    several questions:
    compression ratio is high for pump gas, but
    what fuel will you be running?
    how much boost?
    have you though about 76ccheads?
    fuel inj. or carb/s??
    light or heavy vehicle?

    1) fuel E85
    2) 5-6lbs boost
    3) willing to go with larger piston chamber 12cc but new heads are cost prohibited.
    3) fitech power adder system
    4) Vehicle 65 impala 3800lbs?

    i gotta feeling that with that E85 fuel that this combo would be fine as spec'ed
    increasing quench clearance can make many combos prone to detonation:oops:

    Thanks I'll keep the gaskets I currently have.

    I assume this is a kit with the intercooler?

    Nope unfortunately. It's Edelbrock p/n 1552. I was trying to figure out if I could sandwich an intercooler between the blower baseplate and intake manifold. What are your thoughts on that?
