Title: Compression Calculator - grey motor
Post by: Burnsy on August 06, 2005, 08:12:38 AM
I am playing around with some compression figures for my new engine and don't have an engine lying around to measure.  I need a figure on a standard head gasket thickness in inches and a standard deck height (distance fromt the top of the piston when it is at TDC to the top of the block).

Any comment on a good streetable compression ratio to aim for would be appreciated.

For those interested the calculator is here
