16:1!

Sorry my imagination is just not capable of generating that amount of bad @zz compression snap crackle and pop in the exhaust note,

you'll just have to drive it where I can hear it in real life Tongue 

very nice machine!

We built stuff at school that was 16:1.   Race motors on race fuel for sure.   Basically motors that we were trying to take up as much physical space as possible when the piston was at TDC.  Custom tops.  Good choice for methanol!
