so I've been researching the different methods of getting that "perfect" seal between the cylinder and the head:
lapping of both surfaces, use of a metal O-ring (common on watercooled cars, not much material on an aircooled cylinder), copper head gasket, "fire seal" as used on 935's, and Jakes use of a carbon seal what else am I missing? non-stock motor such as high compression and or turbocharged |
