factory recomeded compression ratio in foot pounds for a 1993 Chevrolet s10 truck with a 2.8 engine?

Compression ratio in a vehicle usually refers to the difference of cylinder displacement at top dead center versus bottom dead center. For example: if the volume is 1 cubic inch at the top of the piston stroke and 10 cubic inches at the bottom of the piston stroke, 1/10=10:1 compression ratio (or is it 9:1? Close enough for government work.)

Foot pounds is a measurement of torque. The two most common measurements of torque on a vehicle is either the twisting force exerted by a vehicle's engine (torque/hp engine specs) or how tight a bolt is supposed to be turned (lb/ft of torque specs for a bolt).

Other than the fact that compression ratio and foot pounds may be used to describe a vehicle's engine attributes, they have nothing else in common.
