> it actually is Benny. Its the “flat” part of the combustion chamber (on an LSX head) that almost makes contact with the top of the piston when that piston is at TDC. It basically squeezes or SQUISHES the combusting gases towards the valves on the other side of the combustion chamber (again, on an LSX cylinder head).

Ok so what’s wrong with opening up the space between the piston and the ‘squish area’ to lower compression?

I could probably search and find this out on my own, but hey, you’re here. :rofl
