The heads come cast at 118 and they where flat milled.I never did check the cc of the combustion chamber but I would guess around 116 cc.The pistons have a .280 dome on them and they sit down in the hole at .030.It states 10.to 1 from Fed. mogul with a 118 cc head and std. bore.This engine is at .060 over.
