If you want to figure out what your static compression ratio is, you’re going to need to factor in combustion chamber volume or, CC the cylinder heads. In this video master machinist Kevin Frische shows us how this process is done. We also find out what the static compression ratio of #DarkMatterPikachu.
In addition to knowing cylinder head volume, you’re also going to need to know the piston volume, bore, stroke, deck height, and head gasket thickness. With that information you can figure out static compression ratio using this website.
