Dropped the engine yesterday and starting to pull things apart - but having internet problems uploading pics.
Putting in AA's new Cylinder Heads & 96mm P's & C's. Can't wait. More pics when I can get uploading to work - downloading is fine.... GN (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/hosting.photobucket.com-21449-1659712197.1.JPG) |

TECHNICAL QUESTION:
I understand that Type IV's do not use cylinder head gaskets - how they get by with none is still a mystery to me. I'm getting the Biral 96mm P's & C's and understand that the outer diameter of the cylinders is the same on the 94's and 96's. The 96mm cylinder walls are just thinner by 1mm radius. This means that there is 1mm less steel surface to seal between the heads and the cylinders. As the 914 world has been using 96mm P's & C's in 2.0's for decades, are there any expert tips for me to make sure I get the best seal possible between the heads and cylinders? TIA, GN |
