Yes, all things being equal, would it be better running a flatop verses the piston pictured above??

~thanks




That all depends on what compression ratio you need to be able to run the octane fuel you want.

If you choose a flat top and end up with 12.5 compression but want to run 89 octane fuel then yes you would need a piston that looks like the one above to get an octane friendly compression ratio and still have quench.




I'm running 91-93 octane E85 in my runner now. (jetted up my carb) I would like to run around 11.0cr in the new motor.
