    Just put my short block together and was wondering if someone could give me an estimate on compression. P istons are 27ccs heads are 71ccs but shaved 20 thousand and p istons are .20 in the hole. And also using .20 head gaskets. Thank you

    I believe every .005" is 1cc...

    Should be right at 10.1:1 with 67cc chambers.

    Watch piston to valve if you don't have notches

    It does not change things much , but factor in a added 1 cc for ring land back clearance.
