<VV> Combustion Chamber Modification

[N. Joseph Potts]

Get your copy of Bob's book back. It's got the info you need. No, you DIDN'T
loan it to me! I've got my OWN copy (not loaned out).

Subject: <VV> Combustion Chamber Modification


The Greenbrier's 110 is out for a major rebuild.  The time is ripe to
reconfigure the heads to reduce engine tendency to knock and ping.  My
version of the
Technical Manual is 1986; while it has some good info on this topic, there
must be more current information out there.  I also have Bob Helt's latest
book
(presently out on loan)...is there anything there?  My goal is to end up
with
9:1 compression ration, but burn regular or mid-grade fuel (87-89 octane);
is
this a pie- in-the-sky dream?  The vehicle is already equipped with
Safeguard
knock control system.  Also, what is the chamber CC for a 110 @ 9:1?  Any
info
available would be appreciated.
Thanks,
