I always have used this one; http://www.rbracing-rsr.com/compstaticcalc.html Comparing the two the RB Racing figures in a negative number for deck height Enter a negative number if the piston's flat surface sticks up past the top of the cylinder but the "LS1/LS6" calculator takes in a positive number for deck height. This alters the the calculation drastically.

If I'm reading the first two calculators right, they will only read a negative (-) number for deck height (piston above the deck). What they won't do is a (+) number which is "piston below the deck". I too like this calcultor better http://www.rbracing-rsr.com/compstaticcalc.html as reads either way.
