flattrackin92 Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 Im in the middle of a rebuild and i just ordered my domes. I had to go with big bore domes cause i have a 66mm piston but the domes have a 12 degree squish angle and im not sure if this is standard or a little different. Could someone explain what this means. thank you for the help Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deckheight Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 It is the angle at which the squish band is cut, in this case 12 deg. from a horizontal axis. Normally 1.5 - 2.5 deg. greater than the crown of whatever piston is being installed allows the squish band to help direct end gasses toward the center of the combustion chamber.
