Default Re: 1cm

Pickups didn't come with the 255 even if its a Mercury pickup. I have one 1CM head on one of my 51 Mercury cars but the other one has 8CM heads on both sides. The stroke length & piston pin location is the only difference between a basic Ford 239 and a basic Mercury 255. The Mercury 1CM head may compare to an 8RT truck engine head as far as compression ratio is concerned.
