OK so this isn't exactly a megasquirt question, BUT i'll be running megasquirt on this engine
Has anyone got a glass/perspex plate to measure combustion chamber volume?

If you find a plastics supplier they sould have plenty scraps that would do the job.
I have some 10mm acrylic that my brother got out of the bin of a plistics supplier. its about 700mm x 200mm. you could have a piece of it if you want to visit the Gold Coast.
cheers
Daniel.

Thanks Dan!
I'm trying to find something locally but if that doesnt work out i'll give you a yell. I have to drop off a PC down the coast at some stage so I could drop in. I'll PM you when I know what im doing.
cheers,
