They work since you've viewed them, attachments on that site first require you to log in to view them. Any idea on compression?

The pictures are hosted on D-series.org
You have to be a member there to see them here. I couldn'd see them at first until I logged in there and refreshed this page.
A different picture host will fix this as im guessing d-series doesnt like hot-linking of pictures off their server.

I'll fix the pics today. The compression calculator for this specific setup, everything included with the 2 layer, the Y8 head and the overbore hits exactly at 11.0:1 CR.

You may wish to clay this motor to check you piston to valve clearance. The valves on the d16y8 head are spread farther apart due to the extra cam lobe than they are on the a6. Should be ok, just a precaution.

hmmm, its actually something that didn't cross my mind. The pistons do sit lower in the cylinder however.

Still have plenty to do on the car. I don't like the wheels, the tint is old, etc etc...
Some things waiting to go on soon:

-Full GSR suspension and brakes between the subframe and body, front and rear, from an '01 with 45K, including 1" master cylinder, and Integra brake booster.

-Rebuilt Manual rack with Quaife Short ratio gear installed.

I was looking for about 11:1 CR, and they got me there. They are also quite flat which I feel is a good attribute in a piston.

See the 1.00 on the piston? That means 1mm over... If my math is correct then: 75mm+1mm=76mm

Awesome! Looks great and the 944 sitting next to the hatch is nice too.
