Nice! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
I wish we could run them without the cooling tin. They look so damn cool stripped down. |

If'n you don't lap the cylinders in you WILL be sorry. So when did you say you are going to put that motor in?
Bet you still beat Rob's motor for getting completed. Just give me the parts man!!!!! |

I lapped mine as a matter of course. It's best to do it so the matting surfaces are nice and true, especially since it's metal to metal. Don't use a gasket, it will leak for sure.

Damn-
Cracked heads and used sodium filled exhaust valves...... Sounds like an early fourth of July to me! any head shop that lets a set of cracks that big leave their doors needs their damned asses beat! and people wonder why they have engine problems!! heat that head up to 350F in an oven and that crack will look like the grand canyon.... Seriously man, thats just not cool....after those cracks are welded the entire head will ned to be remachined- it will tweek the whole thing if not.. |

It looks like Rimco's work... They are slipping lately!
They will repair anything, but you have to specifically tell them to do so.... I'd rather play Russian Roulette with a half loaded cylinder than use those Sodium filled, USED exhaust valves! |

Hey guys, I just had mine done at rimco and they did a very nice job of finding and repairing all of the cracks. Of course they asked if I wanted it done first but IMHO they did a good job.
