Do you add the compressed volume of a head gasket to the heads combustion chamber size when figure out you compression ratio? I was trying to get as close to 10/1 compression with afr 165 heads and I've come up with this http://www.angelfire.com/fl/procrastination/motor.html
Cylinder Diameter (inches) 4.060
Stroke Length (inches) 3.00 (302)
Number of cylinders 8
Chamber in cc's 58cc head plus 6.78 cc compressed volume on the gasket
Piston flat tops so 0
Gasket Thickness in inches 0.32
Comes out to 9.9
Does this sound about right?
