Compression educating???


I looked it up a lil bit but i want to really learn how compression is figured and came up with and what factors to use and such. I know there are guys on here that know this stuff good. HELP?

Is 9.2:1 compression good for a procharged 2v?

compression is calculated from the bore size, piston dish, how high the piston raises above the deck of the block, bore size of the head gasket, compressed head gasket thickness and the size of the chamber on the head....

9.2:1 seems to be just fine for procharged motor... I know that my motor which is 11.5:1 will do just fine on boost too, just depends on what fuel you want to run and how much boost....


I always use a calculator online to do my Compression ratio calculations, but if you look hard enough I am sure you can get the correct formula for it...

my fuel will be 93 octane. Yeah i guess a formula or maybe something of that nature would help.

Ha ha, this is why calculators come in handy, good luck....

Compression Ration =

Cylinder vol. + clearance vol. + piston Comp. vol. + gasket vol. + chamber vol. divided by Clearance vol. + piston vol. + gasket vol. + chamber vol.


How To Calculate Compression Ratio- Car Craft Magazine

Gave me a headache.

93 with a procharger should be just fine....

Head Gasket space = (Bore ÷ 2)2 x 3.14 x Gasket thickness x 16.387064
Deck Height space = (Bore ÷ 2)2 x 3.14 x Deck Height x 16.387064
Compressed Volume = Head Gasket space + Deck Height space +
Piston Top volume + Combustion chamber volume
Uncompressed Volume = Compressed Volume + Displacement
Compression Ratio = Uncompressed volume ÷ Compressed volume

Yeah, that looks easier, lol. Nope, nevermind, still have a headache.

hmmmm... ima read up on it a good bit. Good info guys. As long as the procharger will go good with this compression then ill be happy. How do i find out what i need to type in on the calculator? Where do i get the info of the cobra shortblock and livernois stage 2 heads to plug it into the calculator?

Here's an idea. Measure how much oil it takes to fill the cylinder when it is at the bottom of the stroke with both valves closed (with a cyringe(sp?)), then measure the amount it takes to fill it with oil at top dead center with both valves closed. Take the first measurement and divide it by the second one. There you go, uncompressed volume divided by compressed volume. Ha ha, don't try that at home, or on your own car, lol.

Baker... use a deck hieght of .015 (Thats what I always use when i dont know for sure) and I use a .004 gasket thickness with a modular motor.

and a livernois head is going to be be 54cc+ a few from the porting... I am in the middle of doing homework, so i am not going to run the numbers, but you get the picture...

with a -17 cc piston ( stock PI piston) you will probably be right around 9.2-9.6:1

Hey matt... ima put these heads on a 03 cobra shortblock. Not my pi pistons. So what you say with that setup.

Use -18 for 03 Cobra short block if thats what you are still thinking about. -17 with your 2v block like Matt said.

I take back my orginal estimates of mid 9s, and am going to fall back down to high 8s.... 8.8-9.0 : 1 seems more reasonable... which is plenty safe with the blower....

but run the numbers... I just dont have the time...

You need to get the info on the heads because if they are 54cc then the compression ratio would be less than the 52cc stock Cobra heads. Stock compression is 8.5.

Baker why does these heads have to go on a 03/04 short block? Just wondering.

im cheap! lol. forged shortblock new is just too much! I found a descent deal on a cobra shortblock so im going to rock the cobra shortblock with my livernois heads.

Why dont you build the engine yourself. It would be even cheaper than buying a forged cobra short block. Unless you got the short block for under 2K?

+1. If the heads are off it will be easier to measure. Compression and boost go hand in hand for a given octane. More compression and more boost will make more power, but will need race gas. Less compression (mid 8s) will handle more boost and make more power on pump gas at the expense of a drop in off boost performance and lower mpg.

So which do you recommend? A higher cr with less boost or a lower cr with more boost? A higher CR would be nice for a DD car...
