I am trying to work out compression ratio of my 2056 build. In calculating head volume my understanding from the forum is that stock 2.0 heads have 57mm and the valve pockets on the pistons I am going to use is 3mm. Do I add these together to use 60mm in my calculations for head volume?

@porschetub The .028 on the top of the piston is negative deck height, correct?
Did you use a fire ring? If so, how thick? If not, .028 is 4 thousands CLOSER than anything I've ever run across or built. I have built a tight bore, cast piston water pumper at .033-.034. It worked fine but I was nervous about lack of clearance. .028 sets a new "low" for me... @emerygt350 OMG are you right! You take off too much on a water pumper there are only two ways to save it. Thicker head gasket (if someone makes it!!!) Replace block (and do ALL of the block machine work again!!!). I do my WP builds WITHOUT decking the block. Get everything perfect before pulling it back down for the decking. I also let the machine shop know that if they take more than I ask for they will get to purchase and machine another block for me! I'll also pay DOUBLE for the extra precision! |
