When calculating compression ratio, is it a no-no to use more than one shim under the cylinder to get the desired DH?

QUOTE(Mark Henry @ Dec 11 2011, 07:49 PM)  Three shims max, but I would get shims made by RIMCO to the correct thickness. No disrespect to you Mark (especially if that is you in that avatar (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) ) but I wouldn't piss on Rimco if they were on fire. Things changed there. Search my posts last spring. |
