>An engineers report on the head states the following;-
>combustion chamber as measured : 33.5 cc ( standard 43.3cc)
>giving a compression ratio of 12.3 - 1 (standard 9.5 - 1)
>this assumes a bore and stroke of 74.7 & 95 mm.

>My question is, will a head of this spec. run on an (balanced) otherwise

>If it will it will solve my problem of oil getting into the cooling
