Has anyone actually tried to measure the combustion chamber capacity ? In David Vizard's book he sets out a way of mewasuring cylinder head capacity by fillling with light oil from a burette (pipette

I'll be facing this problem soon as well, so keep us informed :) Could you get around the surface tension problem by using water with a little dishwashing detergent? Ulix P.S. I like your sand idea (

Hey Guys, How about this. Bolt up piece of sheet of Plexiglas to the head that has some sort of fill hole or a zert cut in it to fill with oil. Patton capacity hyperdermic figure a

you'll also need a second hole for the air to escape that you displace. Plus you have to somehow avoid air bubbles under the plexiglas (maybe you could just shake it around). Ulix Ulix __/__,__ ....

Why not just measure the volume of sand? The reason I say that is that the sand will not displace an equal volume of water. If the sand is fine enough then it will act like a fluid... Just my .02 Ji

I was watching "Hot Rod TV" (or another TNN car show) last weekend and watched them do just what Guy is asking. They placed the head at about a 45 degree angle, chambers up, so that the chambers were

More-or-less standard procedure is to cover the combustion chamber with a well-sealed sheet of plexiglass. There should be a small hole in the plexiglass for filling through at one edge of the chambe

The easiest method is to fill it with plastercine, then remove the plastercine and drop it in a measuring glass partially filled with water. The difference in measurement is the volume of the combust

To use the burette, I think a plastic plate with o-rings around the combustion chamber is bolted on (on American racing motors, anyways). The fluid is added through a hole in the plate and the clear

I've seen pictures of this done in car magazines where they bolt a piece of Plexiglas to the head and fill it through the spark plug hole. As I understand it, the point is to ensure that all of the c
