    you can around 11.5:1 with b16's. CTR's are right at 12.25:1 IIRC.

    Find out for sure and get back to me. Comp calulator says ls crank with gsr rods and pr3 pistons = 12:6:1. I don't like the gsr rods in a ls block thing tho.

    I've been hearing those are not very good pistons to use. Something about being prone to detonation.

    there were some .25 over pct pistons being sold in the for sale thread few days ago, came with OEM rings to. 175 bucks.... BNIB (a deal)

    you can buy them for 169 shipped off some sites and oem rings are around 120...

    http://www.zealautowerks.com/bseries.html
    this is the calculator that i used, change it between p30 and the pct pistons. it goes from 11.6 to 13.1 perdy nasty!


    3 different types of b16 pistons:
    (all calculations are b18/b20 with a oem 3 layer head gasket)
    p3-usdm b16 11.39:1 comp
    p30-jdm b16a 11.61:1 comp
    pct-jdm b16b 13.14:1 comp


    if you want to go ls/vtec with a gsr head kiss pump gas goodbye- 14.31:1

    (all calculations are b18/b20 with a oem 3 layer head gasket)
    p3-usdm b16 11.39:1 comp
    p30-jdm b16a 11.61:1 comp
    pct-jdm b16b 13.14:1 comp


    if you want to go ls/vtec with a gsr head kiss pump gas goodbye- 14.31:1
    I don't know where you are getting those numbers. By my calculations, using PCT pistons in an otherwise stock B18A/B will net you around 11.55:1.

    PR3- 10.92:1
    P30- 11.16:1

    There's no way it's making 13:1 using a LS head. Those heads have larger combustion chambers than VTEC heads. Larger combustion chamber = lower compression ratio. Maybe you didn't use the correct piston to deck height.

    Even with a B18C5 block/head and PCT pistons you are only right at 12.0:1 using a stock head gasket.

    1badgvr4, are you going to be using stock sized or 0.25mm oversized pistons?

    stock sized PCT pistons are good for 11.55:1.

    0.25 over PCT pistons are good for 11.61:1.

    The only way I know of to get 13.0:1 using stock honda parts is using a B18A/B block, GSR head, .25 over PCT pistons, and a single layer head gasket, which is good for around 13.1:1.

    Most of those online calculators do not take into account the piston to deck height, and differences between head gasket types. Also, most give the wrong thickness for oem honda head gaskets.

    Brian Crower 403 Cam's, P30 (because they fit on the stock ls rods without any mods), LS ARP Rod Bolts (to rev higher than 7k RPM), Port and Polish the head, new Valvespring, Retainers, Valves, Intake Manifold, Short Ram or Cold Air Intake, and a good tune
