"According to Ken Duttweiler, the tightest quench he recommends is around 0.050-inch."

I wonder how much is really known about quench. When I called AFR and FelPro with my quench vs. compression questions, they both told me to go with the thicker HG. AFR's opinion was basically that yeah quench matters, but having proper compression is way more important. But once again, in a boosted app.
