thanks noof what would you recommend using to drop my cr, im setting my engine for turbo and right now im at 9.4:1 and by adding.075 either under the barrels or using head gasket ill be at the cr i want but have heard bad things about putting that much shim under the barrels i have .060 deck right now

I personally wouldn't go over the deck you already have, others have differing opinions. I use CB copperheads, with flushed pistons. Personally if my compression were that high, I'd be looking to carve some CC's out of my heads to get it back down. Hope you mean the thick 92's.
