I'm trying to put together a fairly cheap & strong test engine. Has anyone used T3 forged Mahle pistons in a 8V 2.2 engine? How many cc's is a T3 combustion chamber? In other words how will T3 pistons change the compression ratio if using a G head?

I think it works out to roughly 9.5:1 on a 782 head, so that would roughly be 9:1 using a G-Head.

OOOH! I wish I had a head to measure the cc's. And also a T3 piston to look at before I committ.

If you search on TD, using my name, I have some posts about it and people have listed the piston and TIII chamber volume, in the TIII and Hyrbid section, :nod:
