VE with turbo would give you more power because of the higher compression. But you could run higher boost on a de-ve setup so it kinda evens itself out..

Wrongo- one the ve head goes on the de block the cr is up to the same point of a full ve motor.

But now you have less piston to valve clearence for bigger cams, when the day come you ant to upgrade you are stuck w de pistons and no valve reliefs

haha thats real dumb if anyone has actually done that

but corys right, the de might only be 9.5 or 10:1 with a de head, but put the ve head on and the smaller ve combustion chaber raises it
