basically the head needs to come off, or you need to know the exact demensions of your pistons, and your head bowl, combined with what type of head gasket you have.

Re: compression equation (flyrod)
Are you trying to take compressoin test numbers (i.e. 215) and see what they convert to (i.e. 10.0:1)? If so i have a chart i can email you or to someone who can post pics.

Re: compression equation (str8rcn)
It wouldn't work as well as you think. Cause you still have to take into account leakdown, and other issues that make a compression test not 100% accurate.
