Prechamber Mod "Flame" Front
Just to add to the excitement, some more numbers to consider. Not intended to support one idea or another, they are just numbers that might inspire a member to post.
The bore of the 61X (per manual) is 3.58 in diameter, which has an area of 10.065968 sqin.
I have seen some piston to valve clearance measurements in the 2mm range, but for the sake of argument and simplicity lets say at TDC the distance from the head to the piston is .100 inches.
10.065968 X .100 = 1.0065968 cuin at TDC, (probably close with the .100 clearance because of the prechamber tip and prechamber pocket).
The 61X cylinder displacement is 36.036165 cuin
36.036165 divided by 1.0065968 = 35.79999999 to 1 compression ratio
In order to have a 21:1 compression ratio the total combustion area needs to be a little over 1.7 cuin.
40% of 1.7 cuin is .68 cuin
Although I have not cced a 61X prechamber, I would put its volume closer to 1 cuin. I'll try to cc one tomorrow.
