C/R piston choice
Is there a off the shelf piston for a 4.15 stroke, 75cc head that gives you a reasonable compression ratio, say 10.5-11.0? It seems they all have either a -3 flat top which puts you in race fuel zone or -28 dish which gets you around 9.8-10.0. Probe used to have a -15 which puts you in that sweet spot, but I dont see them available anymore.

-26.0 cc dish at zero deck and a .041 gasket (4.390 bore) with a 75cc head gives you 10.21:1.
Put the head back to 72cc and you're at 10.46:1

Usually any piston manufacturer who offers a shelf-stock piston for the combination will make 1 dimensional change for not much extra money so, you can get whatever cc dish you want.
All it takes is a phone call.

They'll change bore, or C/H...sometihng like that. If you want to change rings or dish volumes it has to go through engineering.....that makes it a custom.
