Yeah I agree.....honestly im not expecting to much from the dyno though considering the only local dyno that will fit my awd wheel base is a mustang dyno.....top that off with 23-25% drivetrain loss and ill be happy with anything over 500 to all four wheels.

I think the type of piston you're talking about is called a reverse dome. It maximizes the quench area.

maybe this is a new technical term, but would nt a reverse dome be a dish?

Well, I know it's not a new term but, I don't know if it is exactly what he is talking about. It is a dish but, follows the shape of the combustion chamber to give the greatest possible quench area.
