I put a set of Jahns 12:1 pistons in a Morgan +4 once, and the owner insisted on using his stock camshaft- - - -didn't want an idle lope. I told him it wouldn't work. We had to set the timing 10 degrees AFTER TDC to keep it from detonating on acceleration, and the thing was totally gutless! He didn't run it that way long!
