Flat top pistons in a 400 inch Chevrolet engine will generally provide compression ratios in the 12.2:1 range which makes them a good option for engines with aluminum heads where the use of race gas is acceptable. Valve reliefs are configured to work with most types of standard and aluminum cylinder heads and will normally fit camshafts to over .650 valve lift.
