They are marketed as performance parts. Are they competition parts? That is the grey area. I think they are well out of the spirit of the rules, but that is only my feeling. Anyway this has been argued to death several times.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
Every time I've seen the debate the spirit of the rules seems to get trumped by the letter of the law.
Works for me.
I get immense enjoyment from getting together with other bucket racers over a few beers to debate all the variables of two stroke tuning and the satisfaction of seeing my efforts on a dyno are worth all the hours spent measuring and filing. Bucket racing is not about what we are prepared to pay for a motor, but more about our collective knowledge, abilities, resources and to develop a class of racing that is both competitive and affordable

Best as I can tell, squish is 0.85mm
These are the pistons I have been using, (because I have them) but I had never seen the original head before. The squish area in the head is much wider than I expected, it must make the combustion chamber a funny shape.
This is the head shape I use with these pistons. It does not give a lot of squish area, but is a better shape (I hope), It runs with 0.8 squish and 16 deg ignition advance at peak torque.
