Getting to the point of having block bored to +20 but whats the best way to tell the engineering shop how much to take off the deck to give correct CR.

looking for a deck height of about 2cc or 0.020". this should give me about a CR of 8.6:1, looking to run about 15-16psi hopefully.

would it be best to refit one standard piston and measure the current deck height, then inform the machine shop to remove the required amount to give the required volume.

You need to do a dry build & measure the height of the piston in relation to the block face at TDC. Then you know how much to remove to leave you with 0.020"

cheer phil, thought i'd ask before getting any work done.
to be honest if the deck height is greater than 0.020" this maybe a bonus as it will reduce the CR or is there other adverse problems with having a large deck height.

that equates to 2cc, which i used to do my CR calculation for 8.6:1

should be ok running 15 psi at that CR i hope, may ask the engineering shop just to surface skim the block and see where we are from there.

Mitsi Evo 7, 911, Cossie. & all the chavs ...... won no problem

If you are using omega cast pistons +20s 10cc dish I would flash the block 0.020" leaving 0.020" deck height, .......... as those pistons sit 0.040" down the bore on @ 81.3mm stroke crank

pistons arrived today, need to get the block done next month so can hopefully get the build started.
cheers for the advice steve, *Clapping* need to decide where to get block bored now as well as crank ground.

I wouldn't assume anything though. Do a dry build, measure & make sure.
