What CR is this piston? was created by Gman
I've got a new project I started on ('74 Z1) and the 903 eng with it has 70mm pistons with stock cams. The pistons have deeper valve pockets than any of the pictures in my shop manuals. If anyone tell me if these are stock 1015 pistons or 10.25:1 CR by looking at the pics it would be helpful. PO knew very little about the eng. Thanks.

Look like Wiseco's to me.
Clean off some of that mud,and see if there's a number stamped on them.
In the pic,the piston on the right is a stock 1015,and the other one is a Wiseco 1105.

Thanks for the help. Are stock cams ok or will I have detonation problems? I know one of the fan favorites is 1075 kit with .410 cams. Would .410 cams be good for this application as well or should I consider something smaller? This is pretty much going to be mostly hot street bike.
