Power loss is assumed to be 3% gain or loss in compression ratio per point of compression ratio. But the gain diminishes as you actually get over about 13 to 1 compression ratio.
But for easy math, 5 compression ratio points times 3% for each point = 15% less power vs a 16-1 engine. Tom V.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
