Cylinder head porting questions - 05/08/12 10:44 PM
I just got my cylinder head back from the machine shop. I had the 1.94/ 1.60 valve installed and the head drilled for the lumps. Now I need to blend the bowls and also it seemed like the lumps fit a lot tighter before the machine work. My questions are:
How much can I take out of the intake runners to match the valve opening?
How should I blend the edges of the combustion chamber?
What should I do with the edge of the lump closest to the valve?
I have attached photos, first try, hopefully they show up.
Looking for opinions.
Thanks.
