65501, RE: compression and pistons Posted by DR1665, Dec-31-03 02:59 AM
Is there any way to check the CR of a piston by looking at the piston itself? How would you know if somehow some 8.8:1 pistons got put in a box by mistake with a spec sheet for 10.5:1? What numbers would you check on the spec sheet to see? Assuming this isn't listed on the box?
Thanks again! :P

Isn't the size of the piston actually a little shorter if the compression is lower? Cuz you know, it's not compressing as much. :shrug

8.8:1 pistons are a dished design. the middlke is actually sunken down.
10.5:1 are domes pistons, like the stock design but with a higher dome.
