Re: Compression ratio testing

[Rob P]

When I bought the motor, I asked the guy twice whether its capacity was over two litres and he said yes both times. Basically I wanted to legitimately compete in under 2 litre class competitions. Maybe the guy lied or just did'nt know,as he did'nt build the motor either. Neither did the guy he bought it off. Do reckon it's "scarey" because wall thickness is a bit thin on a 89mm bored block?   Regards, Rob P   ----- Original Message ----- From: Terry Rudd To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, December 02, 2002 6:39 PM Subject: RE: Compression ratio testing Still not quite right Errol - the second 60 should be 45 also, the result is correct. 2140cc L20B block is 89cc bore - scary.   regards Terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of E Smith Sent: Monday, 2 December 2002 6:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Compression ratio testing Apologies, I'll read the post better next time.   At 45 cc that means ((12.84 x 45) - [Terry Rudd] 45 (60 )=532.8 cc which would make it a 2140 engine. A much more likely figure.   Cheers, Feral Errol <http://www.datrats.com.au/> -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Rob P Sent: Monday, December 02, 2002 1:01 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Compression ratio testing Cheers Errol, You may be right, as Terry has also cast doubts over the validity of the figures. However, where did you get the 60 in your formula? I cc'd the combustion chamber with the head on the block and this included the chamber volume and the remainder of swept volume (0 cc) and total was 45cc at TDC. The flat tops must be flush with the top of the block, basically.   Regards, Rob P   --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
