Head Jvt Big Valve Head

sir kiram let me borrow your pic.

Here it is, the JVT big valve head!

We contacted sir mon regarding this, but unfortunately, he doesnt have the price for this yet!

Is it advisable to make your valves big if your engine compression is not that high? If the bore was changed, will it make the engine compression to become high?

i think big valve head upgrade is advisable for bore kits 62mm up. just like raider 150, it has 62mm bore so the recommended valves is 19-22. stock head and valve is just fine for 59mm below.

Okay. Because I remember a friend of mine went to a very well known mechanic here in Pasig and told him that big valves is not required unless your engine is high comp even if the engine bore is 63.. His engine bore is 63mm but the mechanic didn't recommend him to change to big valves because he is not high comp.. just my share..

Maybe hes just telling you that its ok to use stock head and stock valves to big bores.

how much is that head?so it means its ok to change stock valve to big valve to a high compression stock bore?

im using 57mm vixion block. but i dont know what's the number of my compression. how will i know whats compression ratio of my block.
 
guys, below is a rough computation on your compression ratio considering there are no changes in the head (Shaving, jackup, high comp piston and polishing). Porting doesn't increase compression.

Stock LC135
Combustion Chamber Volume = 134.4cc/10.9(Compression Ratio)
= 12.33cc

Vixion Kit Compression (57mm piston dia)
= 149.78cc/12.33cc
= 12.14 Compression Ratio
91Octane above recommended

62mm kit = 177.2 cc/12.33cc
= 14.37 Compression Ratio
95octane rating recommended. Po

65mm kit = 194.78cc/12.33cc
=15.80 Compression Ratio
(Big Head upgrade, or polishing is not recommended but a must to prevent knocking) Polishing increases the head volume.

Compression ratio 2:1 3:1 5:1 10:1 15:1 20:1 25:1 35:1
Pressure ratio 2.64:1 4.66:1 9.52:1 25.12:1 44.31:1 66.29:1 90.60:1 145.11:1

sir,, i think when we increase the diameter of piston / bore; our combustion chamber volume also increase.
 
Nope. Combustion chamber is calculated during the top dead center. no matter how much you increase your piston diameter, it will not increase the combustion chamber unless you have allowance or decrease in the the top dead center.

sir combustion chamber means the space between cylinder head and top of piston. Distance between top of piston and head remains the same but the diameter of the combustion also increase which means volume also increase. i have also read some threads about vixion kits that once you used it; your engine become low compression.

The actual size of the combustion chamber is the volume left clear of the cylinder head when both the intake valve and the exhaust valve are closed, and the piston is at the top of its cycle. A smaller combustion chamber produces a higher compression ratio and hence will produce more power. Higher compression also created higher temperatures. The size of the combustion chamber can be changed either by boring the cylinder head or by changing the shape of the piston head.
I hope that helps answer the question! :thumbsup:

thanks for further explanations sir,, which make it clear that we increase the size of the bore also increases the combustion chamber volume.
