My Road Trip Motor Progress

ZACH....Your comment about the HEMI CUT increasing the surface area is actually not accurate. It increases the VOLUME...but look at the design I posted and ask yourself, if you take the wedge design and calculate all the surface area with the corners, which has more surface area? Plus, which has the bends and corners that are known to contribute to detonation issues? There is something to learn here GRASSHOPPER. :-)

So what does the piston look like? You eluded to it being special.
Joel Mohr:
Not to mention the benefit of unshrouding the valves...
rick m:
Taylor,
The piston is nothing special. You can run a flat top...providing you have valve clearance. I actually have eyebrows in mine...with the k8 cam. There are a lot of combos you can run. Did you see my sketch? The focus I have is on eliminating surface area and all the corners in favor of a better design for pump gas.
