I'm interested. Can you give some advise as to what to expect between 9 cr vs 10 cr short block? I just don't know which one to buy.

Depending on what type of gas is available. 10:1 will produce slightly more response but also more prone to detonation if you have crappy gas.

So for us with easy access to 93 and E85 10 would be the way to go. Any details on that 2.19liter kit?

Thanks for your reply. Would methanol/water injection cure the low 91 octane and prevent detonation?

Yes, as long as the kit is working properly.
