There is a calculator in the stickies on this page. Smokemup, a sponsor in the links on the right has a nice engine math section. You will need more data to accurately find your dsr.

Well, assuming a couple of things, your DCR should be right around 8.93. This assumes a seat to seat of 260 degrees on the intake lobe and a +3 on the pin angle.

Your static compression would be 10.9:1. If you can get me the intake actual duration and the installed angle, I can get you a closer number.

Thanks!

Would that info be available on the Cam Card?
