Can anyone tell me the correct compression ratio for a 1966 Corsaro 150 and where I can get an oversized piston if needed?

Hello Dave.

The standard Corsaro 150 would be 9.8:1. The Gran Turismo (Touring) version would be 9.4:1.
Although I've never dealt with them, King of Piston seem quite promising...

Thanks Jenny, the bits you sent are great, best parcel wrapper ever! Compression is 60psi so a tad low….
Will check valve/tappets first but it may be worn bores. Might be settings as engine was supposedly fully rebuilt.
Fingers crossed
