Hello. Looking to up the stock compression ratio on a 2000 OHC engine without purchasing forged pistons. Will the SOHC pistons fit and yield a higher CR?
The project is swapping out the 2.8L in my TVR (British) with a 4.0L. Delta cam, up CR a bit, inject with Megasquirt, SM plenum. Not going for high revs and thought forged pistons would not be required. The SOCH CR of 9.7:1 would be nice, but don't have the head cc info to know what the ratio would be after the swap (assuming it's possible).
Anyone done this before?
thanks,
Scott
