David, that would just be the same for every std subaru...
Its the cc of the individual parts he is asking for, to calculate CR.
eg head cc for various heads
piston dish cc for various pistons
gasket cc ( easily calculated )
ring land cc ( wouldnt worry too much about that 1 )
If I could find all me bits, Id measure my legacy heads, I just have no idea what I done with my syringe/burette for measuring.

Somewhere close to 67cc clearance volume for the Sti5 is about right. (per cylinder) This assumes zero deck clearance and a 0.6mm head gasket. Gives an 8:1 comp ratio at that on std pistons.

Sorry its a bit late mate, my95 impreza chamber volume 43cc
rough guide to go by cant remember if thay are 1994cc or 1998cc, so 1998cc divide by 4, 499.5 plus unswept volume 69=568.5 divide by usv 69= 8.2:1.
unswept volume.
3 layer steel shim gasket 8cc
V6 sti piston and unswept bore 18cc
Steve.

Dont forget the impreza head volume will be smaller than a legacy.

Just did phase 2 (my99/00) Impreza heads; 50ml volume for the head portion.

Maecky - you need to know the bore and stroke to calculate CR. Then use PixR2xstroke to calculate cylinder volume. As mentioned above, you also need to include head gasket thicknes and measure volume of head chamber and piston crown (I used a plastic plate with holes drilled in it, placed over the cylinder or chamber (sealed with oil) and then accurately measuring the amount of fluid it can hold (blue screen wash is best, no issues with airbubbles)).

I'm running a CR of 8.8:1 - a little high perhaps (?), my target was 8.5:1.

Edited to add: the above makes it sound like I know what I'm doing....I don't....but my engine builder is quite short...making it easy to look over his shoulder

Ignore my email - thought you were talking about increasing CR

To reduce it, potentially a different (thicker) head gasket, but I don't know what reliability issues this may/may not bring about. One of the UK guys probably has more info. What MY engine?

Hy!

The engine is/was a My00 engine!

i will use 1.4mm Gaskets cause thes are not to expensive and easy to get in the 97,5mm! (tried a long time to get 2mm strong ones but was not possible!
