Im a machinist, In training I should say
What is the formula for how much to take off to get a certain dish? I want to dish my pistons out 20CC for use in my 4.5 stroker with a turbo

IDK if the top of the stock piston is thick enough to dish...

Each 1cc added to the piston dish volume will reduce the CR by 0.1.

I believe he wants to know how much to cut to get x amount of cc increase.

That is the game plan, but im also trying to figure out how to program the CNC so it will do it in one shot

Oh OK. In that case each 0.010" the dish is made deeper adds 1.15cc to the volume.
