Default Cp pistons 81.5 9.8:1cr. Lsvtec basic First timer!

i bought used block off acquaintance friend locally known to build motors so i took a $600 chance on his short block complete minus head / tranny parts. He doesn't remember if it was the 9:1 or 9:8.1 cr ratio. Can anyone identify it I tried pulling google image but they all use same picture.

Well the images in the site are just general images used just for the varying degrees of choices. They won't really show a photo of each individual piston.

You're going to more than likely be somewhere in the middle anyway depending upon the head that you're going to use, it's valves, milled block/head surfaces etc.

The only way to truly confirm use to either find some etched part numbers or take the block alert, take full measurements and compare with the catalog (which IMHO is not worth doing, really, due to what I said in the previous paragraph)

only other way is if someone else with the same pistons can confirm which I think is what OP was hoping for. If I had to guess I would say those are the 9:1 model

But I do agree with shodan here once model is verified you need to take the specs punch it into a compression calc along with your other motor specs to get anything accurate

Thanks guys. Yea I no punch the zeal calculator I just wanted to know if pistons themselves were 9:1 spec or 9:8.1 spec. I know it'll change with what first post said. Milling head block hg valves

for some reason I see a lot of cp pistons don't have part numbers but numbers like 82-2 or 79-2

not exaclty, its dependent on crank used (LS vs GSR), head (b16 vs gsr), amount of milling done to head/ block, HG thickness. depending on the combination of all those factors will change things quite a bit

the "bowled" pistons have less static compression height than flat pistons. So comparing with the 9:1 (more "bowled" than yours) i would suggest yours are 9,8:1.

You have some quality parts in your setup, should be fun.

I don't think those are ID injectors tho, sir.
ID makes 725's afaik....That's what I have...and if you google some images you will see some discrepancies.
They have a colored band/clip component, and the nozzle/pintle area will be machined away considerably as part of the modification process.
Also they will have either a hand-etched serial number or later units have laser-etched logos.
You can ask them to check the unique serial to verify if they are genuine, they have every injector they ever sold documented.
Those look like un-modified Bosch injectors.
Which might even be better than 725's. If they're some of the 2200 cng types you can make a lot of power.
Maybe even 1000's.
I think you need to know what the rating is so it can be tuned.
I suppose it will become evident quickly to a competent tuner, but being able to load proper dead times etc. at first will be best.

Got the metigulous turbo manifold for a steal. Brand new but second hand
i just need to go buy. A 14mm Allen 1/2 socket
put oil pan gasket on
find 3 m6-1.00-22mm studs
ive checked oem b16a2 hey only sell by 2
ive tried local hardware they’re not double sided idk if that matters
then I can put it in the car
been little slow bc dealing with my wrecked stock ex civic


e:next day
Went to harbor freight. Bought me 9piece Allen key 1/2 3/8 socket set and got free 5x7ft tarp
they always give out free 5x7 tarps from coupon. Which is awesome. Let’s face it. Who doesn’t want free tarps lol
My ingersoll rand w7150k is awesome. Got it for my bday 6 years ago still running strong!

im going to vent my catch can to only the top vc ports nothing on block
hopefully someone can chime in and tell me that works ok or not.

now I only need to put oil pan on (gotta go buy the sealant)
gotta buy 3x m6-1.00-22mm studs

i would still vent the block. allowing crank case pressure to escape isnt a bad thing.

im sure someone will come with a better explanation tho lol

came with the injectors I bought


swap is installed!
I ran into a problem with ruel rail

i ordered oem em1 m6-1.00-28mm
too short
gotten m6-1.00-40mm. Bolts. Just a hair too much. Gotta go back to McLendon and buy some washers to space it out

the edelbrock performer x is a very tight fit with firewall holy

Yes it is. I had to use 90s on those back ports.
