Bwahahahahahahaha! Dude you're so clueless it's not even worth arguing with you.

Piston deck clearance =/= engine deck height. Better luck next time

Bullshit...what do you do for a living? I hope you don't work on or build engines...lol do you even know what the squish band is?

snake95

Get mad because you don't understand elementary engine terms

Sorry your 4 second google search made you look dumb on the internet.

bh353

How is that possible with the options of domed or concave pistons? You honestly don't think that makes a difference? What about a high lift cam? come on master engine builder tell me again that piston deck clearance =crank to deck clearance...lmao

bh353

Elementry engine terms?like I said earlier I have built super stock pwc engines for many years that require a lot more skill than you think...all engines use the same basic concept...im also a professional mechanic as I work on engines all day six days a week...what do you do?

snake95

We're talking about the definition of simple terms. You fucked up, kiddo. Sorry.

I don't give a **** about your hypothetical build, but if I did, I'd make sure your definitions were correct before I paid any attention.

Thanks!

What does that say about your knowledge if me, someone who isn't a "professional mechanic", knows the definitions of terms that you don't?

What is crank to deck clearance?

snake95

This has been fun. I'm a few too many whiskey & cokes deep to give any more *****.


But just in case bh353 needs study material:

block deck height = distance from crankshaft to block deck surface

piston deck clearance = distance piston is in/out of the hole.

bh353

Crank centerline to the top of the block...which has no importance to a performance build...I would worry more about ptv clearance when measuring deck height...

bh353

So how am I wrong with piston deck clearance =distance is in/out of hole? If were talking to different things than that's cool...

Dude....why do you try to turn everything into a stupid argument?? I did not dig at ford for doin it that way. And as far as I can tell a highly modified block don't mean ****.....it may as well be aftermarket. Seems like there are plenty of 8sec stock bottom ls **** to.......hhhhmmmm
Snakes got muh back.

Um, im here for the orgy?

Wow, this bh guy is awesome...makes me feel knowledgable.

Engine BLOCK DECK height has nothing to do with piston to deck height...Who cares about THE BLOCK DECK HEIGHT?I could design a smaller deck height with a shorter rod with a bigger bore and higher compreesion that will rev to the moon

bh353

Sorry can't fix stupid..Let me ask you a simple question..when you build a engine do you worry about the centerline of the crank to the top of the block? or do you worry about ptv clearance?

Heater

Longer deck height=Longer rod=Longer stroke=Larger displacement

Gt4urass

Regardless of build, it's always wise to check PTV. As Heater said, the entire purpose for a taller deck, is to be able to achieve a longer stroke, thus more displacement...

bh353

You could also do that with a stroked crank or a bigger bore...It may just be me but I would worry more about ptv clearance that the crank centerline to the top of block..to each their own I guess,im done debating with block depth height when you can describe it two ways...I just know which one would be more important to me...No hard feelings.

SSelDiabloBlanco

Just an idea...why dont you guys just make out and get it over with? They always say opposites attract anyway...

bh353

Oh hell no not into guys...I know we don't agree on everything,but we are all car guys no matter the make..lets just enjoy them while we can.
