If you're telling me that increasing surface doesnt lead to wash down and an
incomplete burn, you're statements are incorrect. Simply changin the piston
doesnt produce THAT much more power. Yes, you've increased your CR but at
the expense of your combustion chamber (no modification to the stroke).
This is atleast a mini series worth of information that cant really be
successfuly argued on a mailing list. Bigger aint always better, lets leave
it at that.
