Bore X Bore X .7854 X stroke= Cylinder Volume V1
Bore X Bore X .7854 X Deck Height= Deck Clearance Volume V2
Bore X Bore X .7854 X Head Gasket Thickness= Gasket Opening Volume V3
Comustion Chamber Volume in CC's(cubic centimeters) To Convert CC's to Cubic inches, Multiply CC's by .06102 CC's X .06102= V4
(V1+V2+V3+V4)/(V2+V3+V4) = COMPRESSION RATIO
This is some info I found on another forum about compression ratios.
My build is on a 1973 351C with 2V 76.2cc .40 over bore, stock stroke.
I am using these pistons do I subtract 2 cc's from the cylinder head cc for the equation? Also should these pistons work and not hit the valves? Will I be able to run pump gas?
Any estiments on the compression I should be seeing?
The block and heads are stock deck heights
