there is only one correct way of measuring comp height on pistons.............
that IS.........from gudgeon pin centre to crown edge................................
there is NO "new money"way.........thats ball.x................ :lol:
if you really considered things and thought it through properly you would realize that measurements done the "new money" way would not take into consideration gudgeon pin thickness etc.................

I shall plough my own furrow, as adding a 1 onto a number is quite easy :lol:

seriously thou its far easier to measure the height with a gudgeon pin half in the piston than guessing where the centre of the hole is, only my opinion
