Jim what do you consider a max MSV?

What I do is make the verticle squish height close to the point where the piston will just kiss the head when the engine is over- reved. I can easily do this because of the very tight clearances used on my steel connecting rod. I want the squish area ratio between 40 & 50%. The squish velocity will be in the high 30m/s (98ft/s) with the shape of the squish area following the piston crown, & a sharp transition edge from the squish to the bowl.
If the squish is working properly it will cause much greater turbulence in the end gases, increasing flame speed, burning more combustion gases faster, killing detonation. When operating the engine in this manner tuning can be critical. The use of a toroidal head makes the tuning much easier because the point of ignition can be moved to the center of the chamber. The close proximity of the piston crown to the toroid shape forces the flame front outward horizontally very early in the combustion process. This horizontal movement encounters the high squish turbulance approximately 10* BTDC. All things working together, ignition point in the middle, very high MSV & a horizontal flame front, create a much faster burn.
This is the magic of a high performance two stroke, "you never know when something really exciting is about to happen!"
