Piston recommendation

due to exact measurements and dish volume compared with my .040 Icons, I decided to just order the .060 Icons. I will be about .010 OUT of the hole with 60.5cc chambers, so should be right where I want.......hopefully. Worse case is once it's decked, he MAY have to cut the pistons a bit, but probably not.

I'm not gonna hit 600 HP, so I believe the Icons will be fine. A friend running the Icons running in the 9's with a 175 shot. Many, many passes AND street miles.

OIL issues.......God, where do I start? Well, it was 2 things

1 CNC porting cut into valve cover bolt holes. No big deal, but "a little silicone" on the bolt didn't do squat. I gooped em up every time and never realized it was sucking oil and oil VAPOR like a pig.
Vaccuum test proved it. Now they're epoxied and ready to run. Vacuum and pressure tested and he even flowed them for me.

2. Horrendous cylinder finish. Aparrantly the machine shop I used last year to give me a quick hone used bad stones or something, and never checked their work. Nasty spiral scratches that looked like the friggin cylinder was threaded!
They knew what happened and ran a "dingleball hone" through to hide it.

Once my NEW guy cleaned it all up, the scratches were painfully obvious. He said that it wasn't even close to sealing.

So now, new pistons, bearings and a new Lunati solid roller and I'll be golden. It's only moneyO:)
