Can't figure this one out. I've generated my own CR calculator and checked it against an online calculator. I've CC'ed the pa2688 pistons and have the dome as an advertised -2.83 cc (as per Cosworth documention) however when I work out the static CR I get a low 9.744:1 (with stock heads) or 9.42 with Cosworth heads. Whereas PA2688 are documented at 10.3:1. I wondered if someone could check my calcs and tell me where I'm going wrong.
What's also of interest is the Wiseco 11:1 CR pistons have an identacal deck height but a +7cc dome. My calculator works the Wiseco's to be 11.08:1 CR.
