Piston usage
Can you use a 18* sbc piston with a sbc 23* cyl. head? I know the comp. ratio will change due to the valve angle but that is all I know. Please do not hate on me. I do not know anything about the 18* stuff. Thanks for your help in advance. :lol:

So that would help me understand the 18* thing, so the valve is at 18* and the 23* valve is more straight up and down? If the was the case, wouldn't the 23* valve travel less deeper in the piston? Thanks again for your input.

OR, you could talk her into buying the 18° heads. Tell her about all the money you will save on those pistons. LOL

P.S. It may be possible that those pistons would work depending on your cam lift, piston to deck dim., etc. Just don't know for sure.
