I'm pretty certain it's an old TRW #. Apparently when speed pro took over, parts numbers changed.

That one has a 39 cc dome. That's huge.

only one with a number close to ones currently in it. Wouldn't suprise me if that came to be true..... might explain the noise the previous owner was hearing Let's hope not.

and yes, it's on the stand wrong. After crushing the kid's toe, I'm surprised I remember how to get it on a hoist

cool.
from here they don't look too big.
You could make a small investment right now, a 6 sq/in piece of plexi glass
and a trip to the local drug store to get a 6occ syringe from the drug store (ask for a large saline syringe) and a feeler gauge. Oh, and make sure it's a good syringe that has it marked down to the CC.. some will say this isn't accurate enough but compared to guessing it's exponentially better.
Ok, start off by bring a piston to TDC, laying the plexiglass (or straight edge if you have one) across the deck and use the feeler gauge to check how far in the hole the piston is.
write that number down. You can check a few if you like to make sure everything is somewhat square.
now determine the thickness of gasket to bring your quench to .040-.050" (feeler gauge + available gaskets)
Now move the piston down the bore, put the plexi glass over the bore and move the piston back up until it just touches the glass. now use a pair of calipers to measure how far in the bore it is. replace the glass and add rubbing alcohol until you fill the bore to the glass, measuring the CC's it takes.
calculate the volume in CC's and subtract the CC's it took to fill it up. this will tell you the dome of the piston. in CC's
volume=pi × r^2 × h
but there are calculators you can use too
now check your heads CC
now that you have the CC of the piston and CC of the head + know the feller gauge you need use a calculator to determine your compression ratio..

that means so much from the guy who was sending me Una-bomber emails for 3 weeks straight.
Carry on, this is actually becoming a worthy thread. |

yup, kept it PM for a reason. Your lack of intelligence and general lack of manners is rather disturbing, but we'll let Craig decide of you've finally stepped over bounds.

always thought CID =
(bore/2) squared x PI x stroke x number of cylinders
