Its pretty cool stuff, we worked out that the pressuse one the piston as the mixture comes in is near 9.4 tonnes and the side thrust is roughly 2.7 tonnes, amazing learning about real f1 stuff, we worked out that if you make the con rod longer then the side force as the piston comes down will decrease due to the angle at the crank being smaller. but F1 pistons only use 1 compression ring and 1 oil ring, and they go to 0.1mm of the squish area at TDC. awesome build quality.
