hey tuners, if i had an engine, lets say a 4AGE and i wanted a specific compression like lets say 10:1 or something, how would i go about getting to that exact compression (wat would i have to do) and would i have to do like some measurements or something on d engine to determine i'm there?

First question; why do you want to that particular compression ratio?

The internals in the block and the thickness of head, block and headgasket used are usually changed in combination to give a particular compression ratio.
