    It requires a fair amount a specific information to calculate. Here is a calculator for compression chamber volume. There are others out there online.

    Engine Compression Ratio (CR) Calculator

    Daytona has a 81 mm bore and 71 mm stroke and a 9.3:1 compression ratio. Head gasket thickness and head and piston profile all matter....
    Hope this helps.

    Thank you. Close enough. Measured 40cc's in the head itself. JE says volume of chamber alone on record is 49-52cc's which I doubted.

    Thanks again!

    It may not mean much, but as per original question, I don't recall seeing any reference in factory supplied manual or literature.
    OTOH, have seen & read of several unofficial variations, but can't say which, if any, were obtained using O.E. deck height, gaskets, valves and seat settings.
