  • DOHC valve dia's or intake to exhaust ratio?

    ok did a few searchs and googles... and cant find the #'s

    im looking for the dia for the intake and exhaust valves... or at the very least the ratio of intake to exhaust. i didnt find it in the board section under DOHC and i thought it was on my GM spec sheet on my cardomain but its not.


    also can someone figure out whats wrong with my math here....

    our engine (96) is a 3.4L or 207 cubic inches if we divide by 6 we get 34.5 ci per cylinder.

    bore is 3.62 = radius of 1.81
    stroke is 3.31
    compression ratio is 9.7:1

    if we simplify the engine we have a sweep volume of 34.1 cubic inches. [volume=area of bore X stroke=Pi(1.81)^2 * 3.31]

    so if you take the total volume of 34.5ci and subtract the swept volume of the piston at 3.31 we get 1.19ci remaining.

    1.19 ci to 34.5ci is no where near 9.7:1 CR! whats wrong?
Working...
