428 build up - Low compression ratio
By Matt McCormick - 01/09/2003 7:43:24 PM; IP 24.52.204.110
Hope someone can help me.
I building a 1966 428 non cj to cj specs. The engine has been bored .30 over (had to) and Im planning to use C6AE-R heads with cj valves installed. Those heads have a 74cc chamber volume. Im having trouble finding a piston that will provide me with a 10.1 to 10.5 compression ratio. KB and JE pistons .30 over list between 9.1 - 9.8 comp ratio. and these are domed.
How is it that the stock piston (flat top) yielded 10.5-1 originally. Does anyone know where I might find a piston that works, or any other suggestions. I planned on using the stock rods thanks for the help.
Matt
