Piston compression height is the distance between the centerline of the pin to the flat part of the top of the piston. It's important to know this number when ordering pistons--especially custom ones- ...

Improving engine efficiency and reducing the total cost of ownership demands engine friction loss reduction through optimal design, especially for large bore application considering the amount of fuel ...

The significantly poorer efficiency of a spark-ignition engine in the part load range compared to its efficiency at full load is the result on the one hand of the restriction losses and on the other ...

Pistons are an engine-building element we like to brag about, but you won't catch many of us boasting about having cast pistons. Cast pistons are for wimps. Many of us like to talk up hypereutectic ...

You've heard the term compression ratio before, but have you ever wondered exactly what it means? Well, it's time to explain exactly what compression ratio is, and why every carmaker is now obsessed ...
