What is the correct size of squish on a Indian stage 4 200, as i have just been told that 2.5 mm is correct as that is what i have at the moment as was about to take it down to 1.5 . Not from the most reliable source but just thought i would double check before i re build the engine.

Below 1.5 and the engine shouldn't detonate. But 3 mmis large enough to loose a little power as gas trapped at the end burns to late to make any power

Just stripped another new SIL 200 (Donor Engine for a TS1)... But prior to taking it apart I thought I would check the squish...... It was 4.5mm... :shocking: Now that's what I call excessive
