[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 143036, member: 55"] 40:1 should be fine in that motor, as the 18s and up were mostly jeweled motors. 32:1 won't hurt anything, if you feel it would be better. General rule is 1960 - 1964 - under 18 horse - 24:1. 18 hp and up - 40:1 Post 1964 - 50:1, but on the smaller motors (3 - 6 hp) up until the mid 1970s, I'd run at 40:1, as they still have sleeve bearings.
