If this isn't fixed, it will throw off the SCR and DCR values in this tab.

Also found that ICA uses column B as well. Should be G
What are we looking for when comparing cams using the same heads. I know we want a DCR close to 8.5, but what else?

Hi J-Rod.
This did everything I wanted some months back, so maybe I'm just looking for something different now. All I want is to look at various DCRs vs. SCR and IVC. All that the speadsheet should need is stroke, rod length, SCR and IVC @ 0.006", 0.050" or 0.200" to do this. How do I skip over the other couple of dozen specs? For example, do I have to 'invent' an intake cam duration and ICL to get the desired IVC to appear in the box, or...? Ditto how/where can I enter the SCR I want to use without having to create it from a handfull of volumes plus the engine bore & stroke?
Thanks.

i have been noticing theres a problem with the calculation of scr, and if you look under head gasket volume thats where the problem is its way lower than it should be, so i clicked on it and it says inconsistent formula.

Let me make sure I using this spreadsheet correctly:
If my pistons are .007 above the deck of the block (sticking out) I enter that as -.007 in the spreadsheet, Right??? Not as a positive value, because you are calculating how much of the gasket/chamber volume the piston is taking up...???
For example: ( the below would should pistons sticking-out of the block by .007)
Bore______________________________________4
ST = Stroke_______________________________3.622
RL = Rod Length____________________________6.098
Number of cylinders_________________________8
Deck Height_______________________________-0.007
Piston Dome or Dish (- for a dome + for a dish)__0
Compressed Head gasket thickness____________0.06
Cylinder Head Chamber Volume________________64
???

Is there any reason the sheet does not consider top ring volume? Or is that hidden somewhere I haven't seen it?
Adding it to my version of the sheet, I get a stock SCR for an LS-1 of 10.13 as opposed to 10.31 without it. That's assuming a top ring down distance of 0.250", which seemed a reasonable number. I don't have the actual stock dimension, does anyone?

This spreadsheet gives out fairly high dynamic compression numbers... A stock LS1 with the 230+ degree duration cam gives me very close to 8.5:1 dynamic. Correct me if I am wrong but that is a said "limit" for pump gas, which would not make sense with a cam that big on a stock SCR LS1.
