Located in pittsburgh PA area. I have for sale a brand new set of 1.5 DNA LA small block roller rockers for sale from speedmaster. I got them on black Friday. I went with a different cam and 1.6 rockers due to cam availability. Everything is new and still in original box. See link below. New...
@rumblefish360 I was thinking a 3 angle valve job could clean it up and seat wouldnt need replaced. But im not a head expert.♂:realcrazy:
@MopaR&D Yeah the heads arent in bad shape. Guides were cut down too. Just looks like someone had an oops moment.
Thanks al!! We'll tear down and rebuild is occurring and I noticed one more thing. As I lapped the new valves I noticed the intake seat on that head also has a nick on it. SMH
It does look like someone did a bowl blend or an attempt at it. It looks like they nicked the seat with the porting...
It doesn't look like it has gone through into the water passage just yet. I was thinking of a dab jb weld. Never came across a casting flaw like this before.
It is far out from combustion chamber. I was more concerned of water finding its way outside of the block towards the headers.
Got a set of 302 heads for free that came off of a running 318. 1 cylinder head looks fine. The other has a small crack Into the water jacket area on on cylinder. Sigh.. See top of pic posted near my thumb. The engine was running fine and I even drove in the truck it came out of. Could the...
Thanks!! I'll reach out to comp cams. I did a similar measurement for them so I could get max lift on a 383 cam I built with old school trw dome pistons.
Predict piston-to-valve clearance before ordering a cam with a valve-drop test
I think I'm good on all other clearances and should be fine...
@Rat Bastid No cam has been bought or installed. Taking measurements to predict what cam lift and duration will work using valve drop test at TDC.
I did forget mention cam I am considering is 108 lsa and installed at 108 intake center line.
Sorry for late response!! Life has been little crazy.
@rumblefish360 the flat part of the piston is basically zero deck at .005 in the hole. When I did the putty on the 302 heads with the dome of piston. There was plenty of room. closes thing was the spark plug. With the head bolted on and NO...
@rumblefish360 thanks. i should also mention block is stock height and with dial indicator i got .194 out the hole at the dome. Looking for .040 clearance to be safe. Thanks!!
Looking for some advice or a way to measure the clearance between the dome of the kb399 318 pistons to the cylinder head. The dome on these 318 pistons for those that don't know isn't on the quench pad it's in the valve area. Looking for high compression and with the pistons off they fit in the...
