Compression Ratio Calculator
Its still a work in progress, but I think it is good enough now for people to start using...
Decided to create a site specific CR calculator, or even just a place for people to look up various values for the different engines. I don't have everything entered yet, mainly because I don't have all of the data, but it is close to being complete. I just need Ben to get some more measurements for me and we can probably complete the database.
You can access the calculator from the left hand menu, all the way at the bottom under Miscellaneous. To use it, just select the engine you want to use and if you want an overbore or not. If you just want to use the default values, or just see the default values, then click on the "Calculate with Default Values" button (duh). Keep in mind that it will take into account any overbore that you enter. If you want to enter your own values, you can select the engine you want to use as well. This will provide you with the defaults as a go-by, but all values must be entered regardless. This is handy for testing different piston combinations, head gasket thicknesses, chamber volumes, etc...
Like I said, it is still a work in progress. This is my first attempt at programming with PHP and Java from scratch, so its pretty simple. But it works, so have fun with it. Maybe I can get one of the more talented programmers on here to put together a better version of it (and maybe one that even integrates with the site itself!).
