Is there a ready made up list of standard part sizes?
can we make a HOW TO with a paragraph for each engine?
and a paragraph for each cylinder head

tables exist for stroke and bore sizes for the engines, but more info would help

online stores state the size of non standard, parts but how are we to know how different they are if we don't know the standard sizes?

for each engine eg 850 998 1098 1275
ST con-rod length
ST Piston dish cc
ST piston height
ST piston comp height
ST deck height
ST bore
ST stroke
ST Comp Ratio

for each Cyl Head eg 12G202, 12G925, 12G940
ST valve size
ST valve height
ST valve clearance
ST valve seat angle
ST port size cm3

many people ask for a size, and many people reply with a number, a public resource would cut down people asking

also saves us having to rip apart our ST engines to find out, whats inside, but its always best to check, many people find surprises :D

if theirs room we could put common upgrade sizes there too, eg +40thou over bored pistons

ST means "Special Tuning" - you mean "std"...

and yep, fine idea - can you start it?
