compression ratio
>I have a v10 with a 9.0:1 compression ratio.What does that mean?
It means that the compression chamber contents is reduced (compressed) to 1/9th of its volume as the piston moves up from the bottom of its stroke to the top of its stroke (commonly referred to as "top dead center").
