FA-150 Compression ratio update

Dave, your 150 (no letter on lug) combustion chamber measured 2.40 cc. I'll measure mine (marked B on the lug) when I get my replacement piston.

For reference, Clarence Lee measured 2.45 cc

Looking at the cam lobe orientation it appears to be an alternately firing twin, firing on one or the other cylinder once every 360° of crank rotation? Twingles are said to fire simultaneously?
