now if i throw ctr pistons (or p30 pistons)..will they hit because of the cams bigger lobes? i was also told b20z pistions would be good?? which would b a better choice to go with if im tryin to go HIGH compression?

Those pistons arent that high of a compression, I personally would not worry about it. I'm sure Aussie or another all motor guy will be able to give you a positive answer.

This difference in those pistons is huge. Either 9.0:1 with the B20Z pistons or 11.0:1 with the P30. PCT (CTR) pistons will get you up to 11.4:1

(off topic i wouldnt have gotten a smart response like dis on b20vtec lol)

sorry to be a bother but i just read this right here which make me double think the ctr pistons...

"I decided on P30 b/c they yield 11.1:1 Static compression ratio, which gives me a 10.6:1 Dynamic Compression Ratio(b/c of the big cams I am running). Also CTR's Yield 12.4:1 CR in an LS which 91 octane could never support or else I would have gone with CTR(PCT) Pistons and Crower 405's."

only diff. is that this is in a ls. and mine will b in a b20..any difference? as in can i still be using 91 octane?

Where exactly are you going to find 84mm ctr or itr pistons? Spend the money and get some aftermarket pistons. I would go for a cr of 12:1, you don't have anything to worry about on the clearance. Those heads have huge valve reliefs. The biggest mistake people make imo is not going high enough with their compression. You also might think about having your bores checked. If they are off you should go with something a little oversized. Maybe 84.25mm.

I misread the one post and thought you called me a smart ass. :oops: Sorry about that.

Either way Aussie is here, and he's good with N/A shit.

CP makes some very nice pistons.
