ok guy,
I am not dumping on you. I know what is real and what is bogus. I do beleive you feel the info you have been told is real.
I personally know a few of the very best engine builders and very best cylinder head and camshaft guys there is and also ever was. I know for a fact not one of them can make an engine live and run at a 18.00-1 compression.
I persoannly know the guy over the cylinder head development for Hendricks Racing. They build both restrictor plate engines and non- restrictor engines depending on the racing. Even a restrictor plate engine is seldom over 16.00 -1 static compression. Not any NHRA Pro Stock engine builders I know and I know 2 of them who are considered to be among the best, would even attempt to build any engine over 17.00-1 and that is using the VP c-25 125 octane gas. Actually I doubt if any of them are now even 17.00 -1 becuase they discovered no additional power above 16.85 -1 .
I guess that metric junk is just more efforts to kill the JE company like they have been doing since they bought it. Je PPiston company was bought by a huge elevator company to use as a shelter. o'boy.
Still you have never shared with us what the cc of the top of the piston is. I can guess at gasket cc. I can come close to guessing at Chamber cc if I know the head. Piston dome or piston dish cc cam be anything.
What are the cc of the piston? I hope it is a negative number.
Without Piston CC all other talk is useless.
By the way. Whatever it is; That engine in your car in the vid sounds awsum and the car is bad to the bone. Looks like that short wheelbase is killing you though.
MY thoughts are that it is probably a 16.00 -1 or a little higher compression ratio engine which is great on an all motor SB 2.2 head engine with appx a 28 deg total ignition timing. If I am right.
