    Piston Identification

    G`day ,

    Few yrs back bought a set of pistons of which i`d like to know the compession ratio of , if anyone has the information .

    The pistons are std 94mm to suit a 3.9 ltr V8 .

    They are Hepolite 23874 .

    The pistons have concave tops .

    Another option , possibly a better one if anyone knows ....

    What is the volume of the piston top of an 8.13:1 ratio and or 9.35:1 ratio 3.9 V8 piston ?

    Thanks

    Peter

    Well they are not 8.13:1 pulled the top of a 8.13:1 3.9Ltr and these are less volume so probably 9.35:1 but i`ll measure at some time and also note the deck height for both .

    Probably not but .........

    Does anyone know the piston volume of a 9.35:1 4.0ltr , i have what a 8.37:1 is ?

    I would also like to know the Piston volume of 8.13:1 (or whatever the ratio is ) 4.6Ltr and the 9.35:1 piston volume if anyone happens to know ?

    Also the piston deck height of a 4.6Ltr , i have it for a 4.0Ltr 8.37 ?

    Also ,also does anyone know of a reason not to use Earlier Exhaust valves from 14 bolt ERC 0216 heads in later 10 bolt HRC 2479 Heads ?

    Although the HRC Heads from 4.0/4.6 Engines have smaller combustion chambers the valve dimensions are similar ( though not sure on the stem/guide clearance yet ) but the earlier valves are flat across and not concave so will give less volume so tiny higher ratio ?

    Thanks

    Peter

    Hepolite 23874 suits 3.9 with a comp ratio of 9.35:1.
    Comp height: 47.3mm
    Bowl depth: 3.32mm
    Hope this helps.
