[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 150740, member: 60"] That figure of 40 thou from Terry Prince is interesting certainly as a Comet road bike I am not investigating the higher rev range as we do on the twin racer. In reality the initial measurements on the protruding piston and the top of the liner and thickness of the barrel packers I can juggle with will give me either 30 or 54 thou squish however there are questions of gaskets and squashing of components under 32ftlb of 4 head nuts so next job will be my trusty "play dough" exercise* which not only gives me clearances but rolled in a ball and dropped in my measuring jug of water gives me CR as well (look Ma! CR found and no rings fitted yet!) *[URL]https://www.vincentownersclub.co.uk/threads/compression-ratios-in-the-toy-shop.8213/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
