squishing block

[proprider01us]

For typing out that good explanation of the squish area.

Yeah it is real good, but not relevant to the original subject of this thread.

Sort of like torque and torque ... the torque you use to tighten a bolt vs the torque a running motor makes when you are measuring power.

I dunno Sam, I thought that was an A+ answer.

Clear & to the point, no numbers plucked from thin air, references quoted, & 100% accurate.

My impression was that he wasn't clear on the term. And a squish effect can be had (with varying degrees of difficulty and practicality) in an old deflector engine, a newer deflector engine (such as the few Merc 850 fours that were used in F classes for a time), and both flathead and OHV 4-strokes.
