Not according to CR calc. This is assuming the head is 64cc and the piston is 15cc dome.

thank you for your help.

afaik RB25 stroke is 71.7, not 72.

And it seems to me that rb25 ans rb26 have slightly different combustion chambers (rb26`s a bit larger):

some data pieces found via google:

wiseco`s catalogue says rb25 head is 66.5 cc, and rb26 head is 70cc

here is 62cc@rb25:

here is 63cc@rb25 and 64cc@rb26^

where is the truth? ;)

i just want to know what CR will my engine have...

Adriano is right, you do need the exact volume of what you are using, the only way to do that is to cc your head/piston dome etc..

let me correct what I wrote before with the correct stroke for an RB25, this is using a 71.7mm stroke, 86mm bore, 1mm head gasket, 15cc piston dome, 85mm piston top OD with the top ring 6.4mm from the top with a range of different chamber sizes:

64cc- 8.46:1

63cc- 8.6:1

62cc- 8.74:1

61cc- 8.89:1

60cc- 9.04:1

Now the same using an RB26 crank and pistons, 73.7mm stroke, still zero deck and 15cc dome, 1mm head gasket, 85mm piston top OD with the top ring 6.4mm from the top:

64cc- 8.67:1

63cc- 8.81:1

62cc- 8.96:1

61cc- 9.11:1

60cc- 9.27:1

These numbers are assuming that the volumes are what's written above, a smaller dome will drop the compression, a thicker head gasket will do the same and vise versa. Don't rely on this or what's in a catalogue or you find on a google search, use the volumes that are specific to your own engine. The domes on the forged pistons available for these engines range from around 5cc to 16cc from what I have seen and this makes a huge difference to the compression you will achieve. Also, the compression height of these pistons vary by .2-.3mm depending on the brand which will change your deck clearance. The best way to check this is to dummy the engine up and measure it.

Also, many people ignore the volume around the piston top down to the first ring but this is a part of the chamber volume and on one of these engines comes out around .9 to 1cc depending on the ring depth and the piston top diameter.

If you want to give me the actual numbers you have I dont mind calculating it for you.

    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.  
    • Maybe you should do some more reading.  Google positive effects of ADHD and you'll get your answers.  One of my personal downsides of ADHD has been talking before I think.   Maybe you have it too?
    • Excuse me for butting in....but which part of ADHD can be considered a superpower? I would have though it far more likely that some ASD comorbidity is more likely to be contributing to an ability to hyperfocus on something. ADHD being aimed somewhat in the other direction. My shed looks like your shed. My whiteboard list of unfinished projects has entries going back 15 years. I know what you're talking about - I just struggle to connect ADHD to the results being discussed.
    • Thanks for reaching out!  It's a blessing and a curse at the same time.  I'm undiagnosed but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see it in me... I have more half started projects laying around my house, shed, garden, etc taking up space and money, destroying aesthetics than if I added up all of my mates projects together. But, ADHD gives me the ability to hyper focus on things that no mere mortal could even  comprehend.  A recent pool build is an example of that....  I dont know anyone else that would be dumb enough and focused enough to take on then complete something of that magnitude. I call ADHD a superpower but it can equally be completely destructive if not controlled and focusedon the right places. Addiction is a major concern to ADHD people and thankfully my addictions have been no worse than projects, XBOX, chocolate and being an arsehole! It's often hereditary and my 13 year old son is currently learning how to drive it at the moment. Keep lurking! If i can finally finish this bloody thing at some point it will be a win for all of us ADHD'ers! 🤪
