RE: Sivolite specs

No, the engine is not being balanced because I am changing a complete set of pistons and they are suppose to be within the tolerance for replacement ones. However I did check the compression distance and found that the Silvolite pistons have .020 more deck clearance than the original dished pistons I took out of the engine. That is another 4 cc's. I looked at my notes and found that the original dished pistons had 16 cc's instead of the 14 cc's I had previously posted.

Taking the 12 cc's in the valve relief area and the 4 cc's because of the extra .020 deck clearance in the Silvolite pistons, I will wind up with the same compression ratio as before with the old dished pistons. I think a phone call to Silvolite is in order here.

This thread, so far...
