Ive been playing around with pistons recently in my 12V C90.
I turned down the dome on a 6V C70 piston (as shown in previous post) in the lathe to give max allowable deck height and a comp ratio of roughly 12:1
Ran great for about 15 miles then blew the arse out of the head gasket!!
Back to the drawing board now Im afraid.
But with a bit less CR and a metal head gasket I think it'll be fine.
And give a bit more oomph on the way!
