title says it all. How much variation between cylinders in Deck Height do you builders tolerate? i'm shooting for no more than .001, but i'm curious how steadfast i need to be in this...
damn KB 96's stick out of the jugs, mmm, just a little bit... current deck height: #1 -.204 #2 -.203 #3 -.215 #4 -.214 Desired deck height: 055-056 off to have the machinist whittle out some .25 cylinder spacers (!).... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/givemebeer.gif) |

I assume you missed a decimal place in those numbers, and meant:
#1 -.0204 #2 -.0203 #3 -.0215 #4 -.0214 But I don't know how you measured deck height to the nearest 10 thousands of an inch. So you really need .035" shims. Just be sure and tell your machinist to make some .035" shims - not .25 (he is not likely to read your mind and know you missed a decimal point). Demick |
