The cc of your valve reliefs and deck height are needed to work this out

How could you possibly come up with that? You don't know his bore size, what cc the valve reliefs are or how far out the piston crown is out/down the bore

dvshk,

Bore Size for 6.0L Iron Block (all) =4.0in
Valve Reliefs are stated in the first post.
Using Stock figures for what isn't stated, I came up with ~10.63:1
My math may def be off a little.
Seeing as we don't know how far his piston it out of the hole at TDC,I just used some "stock", figures but Pred is def in the ballpark.

I don't get anywhere near 10.67. With a 4.00" bore I calculate 10.2 and with a 4.030" bore it's the following:

Well by adjusting deck height, I get 10.42:1

Sooo OP, you are in the ballpark of 10.35 >>>10.45:1, because while calcs are accurate in counting, it is the data entries that are not spot on. (unless you actualy measure all of them and input actual data correctly)
My 370 was .01 out of whole so that is what I had used in deck height entry for the 10.6 calc/

I don't know what math you learned, but based on the information provided by the OP, his SCR is 10.34 not 10.45.

If you would drop your ego glasses, you would see that......sheeesh.

Using the link that i posted which is a very basic comp calculator it does not take into account gasket bore size, it does come out @ 10.42:1 on this calculator. The bloke is only after a rough estimate! You can't possibly give him a exact cr as you have not personally measured a thing

okay, lemming. Whatever...... argue with tree, it can obviously calculate better. Your not taking ALL aspects into consideration. Why don't you go do some homework.

Yeah, you are correct, I forgot that you are actualy measuring all the numbers on the engine itself, what was I thinking, your calculation must be spot on

Thats the same thing I did Pred. He said nothing about piston popup, and I assumed it was going to be somewhere close to stock tolerances (.005-.008 but I've seen as much as .010) and I used this calc because i couldn't find my excel sheet. Am I missing something?
