Default Poor man's R Compression Q

Alright, quick question... while trying to calculate compression for a poor mans r on http://www.c-speedracing.com/h...c.php , one of the variables is Piston-to-Deck Height, and I was wondering which one is the proper choice for my application... And help would be great, thanks all.

Piston to deck height is whatever the block is.

Can I get a second on this please? I'm sure Patch is right, but one more opinion would be great.

Yeah, that helps him a lot.

The piston to deck height is just the space between your piston at TDC compared to the deck of the block. There is a space between the piston and the deck, so on the c-speed calcuator you just use whatever block you're using. The head or pistons have nothing to do with it.
