Mr. Rooney

on whose?

Boostfed

Baldheaded Dave 12.60 SOHC EF Hatch! 188whp and 167ft-lb torque, Got more in it too

Mr. Rooney

he ran that bitch with a stock motor. hahahahaha. im guessing it isnt stock any more, huh?

Boostfed

Ever heard of Bisi Ezieriha , well that's who built it. Bisi has run a 10.23@130mph all motor SOHC F23 motor from an Accord. Back to head cc, WTF? The compression would be close to 900:1 to 1000:1 cr. Damn right Volvos are awesome

Mr. Rooney

nah havent heard of him. where is he at? i thought dave was all about keeping everything under $1000 (motor, car, setup)

Boostfed

Now I am told that the chamber would would be in the piston, now that is what I call deep dish!

Boostfed

Now if you have a 0cc combustion chamber in the head and say a -50cc dome displacement this would be an 8:1 CR on a B16A, I dont know the stroke or bore of the Volvo engine or the headgasket thickness and deck height so I dont know what it would be on there and the advantages of this anyways

Mr.2

personally, im a fan of convex combustion chaimbers.

Boostfed

I like Saabs variable combustion chamber technology! If we had something in our Hondas like that start off with high compression down low for spool up and/or low end torque and for Turbo motors lower the CR up top when full boost hits, it would be even cooler if you could actually somehow control it too!

Flite

OK OK OK, I got what you're saying. A totally flat head with a deep dished piston. I think some old Harley Davidson Motors were like that. Teh only advantage I could think of would be that the motor could be made more compact thanks to the thinner head. Other than that, it's a less efficiant design.
