Sorry to be a mindless dick, but is there anyway to work out a rough final compression ratio from the info above??
I'm interested at that price if Terry hasn't grabbed them yet....

I am no expert and am not going to give any indication for a compression figure. Maybe Terry knows? That is why I included thaqt info label. Hopefully someone can come up with a figure?

guys these are "odd" pistons. the 020" bowl depth shown on the piston box is not as much as a stock turbo piston (ie higher compression), but the valve pockets are deeper. Most odd!!!! (note--they are marked as specoilas so only the original buyer can tell us the logic here) Even with the 13mm lift cams we use in the race engines, they dont hit the pistons so i have no idea why they would be fly-cut deeper. I dont want them @$1200 but I'd be prepared to make an offer for both psitons & rods. let me know qik3SGTE

I bought 2 sets of rods and pistons of a guy in the states who uses these specs in his race engines. I have used my other set with 272 HKS cams and all ferrea valve train gear. Almost identical setup to the guy in the states.
As stated I am open to offers. Within reason of course. They are cheap enough as it is.

According to my calculations, with a .8mm head gasket and a zero deck height, 9.36:1 is the figure. Pushing your engine capacity out to 2022cc.
I hope i'm not wrong....

however they take the extra displacemant into account and generally reduce the dome size to conpensate. I searched for the Ebay add i saw of these type for sale but no luck..
