Combustiom chamber vs compression ratio
Let's say I want 10.0:1 compression. Now let's say my engine builder says "this engine has 9.5:1 compression with a 65cc head" Is better in any way or more efficient to add heads with a 58cc chamber to raise compression or to have the engine built to have a true 10.0:1 with the 65cc head?
I guess what I'm really asking is what are the performance differences/charasteristics (other than the apparent effect on compression) between different size heads with all other things being equal?
