that doesnt make any sense retard He is not all that retarded; I have an 8 horsepower Honda engine Clearly written it says 242 CC My calculations would indicate there are:30.25 cc to make one horse power At least with a Honda engine. Of course the compression ratio would change that figure. Also the octane of the gas would also have a bearing. Generally after I have calculated a few engines. My answer would be approximately, 30 cc to one horsepower. By the way,, "doesn't" is spelled with an apostrophe. IslandNick
Verification on your question: Do head gaskets make cars lose pressure....hmmmmm, I think what your asking is.... Does a head gasket make an engine lose compression. - Correct?The simple answer is yes, it does, but it is by design. The amount the head gasket lowers the compression (or pressure) is built into the overall design of the engine. For instance, if you were to assemble the head to the block, without a gasket, you would raise the compression (pressure) slightly and potentially cause damage to the engine. This would most likely become apparent when you burn out a valve or burn a hole in the top of a piston.In general terms: - The greater the compression ratio, the bigger the explosion in the bore and the more heat that is produced.
"engines"
CT ratio is the ratio of primary (input) current to secondary (output) current. A CT with a listed ratio of 4000:1 would provide 1A of output current, when the primary current was 4000A.
Of an individual diesel engine and an individual steam engine of the same energy output the diesel engine would be less polluting. It is far more efficient. However, there are far more diesel engines than steam engines in the world today so overall diesel engines pollute more than steam engines.
It would vary between gas engines and how they were built, but most would fall between 8 1/2 to 1 and 11 to 1 compression ratio.
305 Small Block Chevy engines typically were 8.6 compression ratio and would use 87 octane fuel.

The compression would be low as there is a compression release valve that runs off of the camshaft to make starting easier......I would say no more than 60 psi after several strong pulls.......in trade school the instructors explained that small engine mechanics cannot really do compression tests on these engines..........
A 1:1 ratio is equal to 0 PSI. 14.7 PSI is equal to a 2:1 ratio. Just multiply your ratio by 14.7 to get PSI, or divide PSI by 14.7 to get ratio. This is only in a perfect cylinder where valves close exactly as the piston reaches the bottom and stays closed the whole way, and if no air bleeds out from the valves, or between the piston and cylinder wall. Not to mention the difference between if it's hot or cold. Plus, according to the math problem, if you had a compression ratio of 1:1, you would be pushing 14.7 psi. So there isn't any REAL way of telling an engines compression ratio without getting the specs for everything.
it would be alot of effort to turbo a 1300 engine, most people just cam the 1300 engines do a little head work skim the head to raise the compression and use them for kit cars, not sure if the parts are available, it would be a customer job to find small forged pistons to drop the CR (compression ratio) it would be much easier to fit a 1600 chv turbo from a fiesta or escort turbo,
it depends on your head gasket. a d16y8 head gasket will work best for giving you the highest compression. as for the compression ratio.. i do not know. i would not worry about it since the power out put will be approximate to that of a d16z6 give or take a few hp.
your answer is not easy. do you want ratio or compression pressure. I would guess you are talking pressure, which on a stock engine is around 155 lbs.
Most engines lose compression over time, but each cylinder should have roughly equal compression. Even if compression numbers are not equal, however, it's usually not worth the expense to fix this.
Because that would make the compressed air so hot that the gas/fuel mixture would self ignite, and you don't want that. Gas engines rely on spark plugs to have the the cylinger ignite at the right moment. W/o it you get an uncontrolled flame front, knocking, rough running and maybe even engine damage
When that type of combination has been used by the OEM the compression ratio was around 10.5:1.
There are many possibilities, but the compression ratio would need to be under 9:1
