Alienshm Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 Hi all, new to the forum. Doing a lot of searching on compression ratios and still uncertain. Just finished a 68mm bore cheetah PV. The Power valves are blocked off. Anyways, so did a corrected compression ratio and showing 185-190 per side. Doing the UCC i came up with 12.57 I currently have 18cc domes with .045 of squish. I have new domes coming from NOSS that are 20cc which will change a few things. I do plan on running methanol at some point but would like to stick with race gas for the moment. I set the timing at +6 currently but wondering if 190 is too high for 110. Thanks all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you remove the cc of the spark plug from the equation???Envoyé de mon SM-S908W en utilisant Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alienshm Posted April 4 Author Report Share Posted April 4 Sorry, just got the notice for this. So I got my new domes and did the same calculations as before. This time I came up with 11.5:1 and 150 psi. The math I did was as folloWs 68mm bore 34x34x3.14x58 / 1000+20cc / 20 20cc is the amount that I injected into bore with piston at TDC set with dial indicator ,not sure if that’s correct but that’s the way I have been reading it.

Your math are good, but my question is did you remove the spark plug volume???Usually, we fill it to the top, then remove 2,4cc (volume of the spark plug hole)That make a big difference.

Alienshm Posted April 5 Author Report Share Posted April 5 Oh ok, no I did not. I also didn’t fill it to the top just went to the first thread of the hole. Thank you for that information. I will redo everything before I put motor in frame. Last question if you have a second. Again bear with me as it has been many many years since I have done anything with a motor. I’m going to run 110 to start with so as far as timing goes is 6-7 ok to start with or would I be better to back it down, when I do switch it methanol should I bump the compression ratio up? Current squish is .48 I have a set of 18cc that i originally spoke about but squish was like .31 to .33. And I feel that is so small. Am I incorrect or would a guy be ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I incorrect or would a guy be okWith 110, you can go higher than 13:1. Start with timing at 4, .048" is ok.I'm not familiar with the alcool setup, maybe another member can guide you with that.Envoyé de mon SM-S908W en utilisant Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
