Head gasket

[steve320ise]

Hi to all. can anyone give me some advice as to how to work out the head gasket thickness . I cannot seem to find any info on the piston top to deck measurement. cheers

You'll need to work it out by considering the volume of all the parts in the chamber...the gap from piston top to deck, the volume of the eyebrows, the stroke/swept volume etc, the cyl head volume. From all that a quick spreadsheet will allow you to assess the compression ratio for a given gasket thickness.

I have spreadsheet if you want it. PM me.
