The gasket itself was not breached. The fire ring was still intact. Usually, id expect to see the fire ring burnt thru its edges that are exposed to the detonation.
It had been as hot as hell as you can see by the witness marks but most of that marking is probably just the paper part of the gasket charring and leaving the stain. The breach was all on the block side.
The pix really highlights the blowing marks. When you actually look at it under natural light, the marks are very faint.
The strange part is that the engine was running beautifully, right up to the point that I pulled the head off and apart from the slight bubbling in the water, I would have just kept driving it around like that!!!!!

I was thinking valve clearance for the fact that #3 'maybe' to small! I have seen a difference of a good few thou clearance over the duration of the heel of a stock cam I had in the past. Probably the combination of the cam tunnel being slightly worn as well as the stock cam bearing surfaces. You may be cracking the exhaust valve mid stroke if the valve gap is too small.tassuperkart wrote:To be honest M8, I dodnt clearance the valves when I fitted this head/cam combo. the previous owner didnt need to so I just took it at that. might be worth a look but unless the valves are actually touching the slugs then Im not really concerned.
Yer that combustion chamber shape is the only one they do. I dont really know if there is any benefit in one shape over the other tho.
have you found any differences?
I will bleand slightly the edge where the bowl ends out on the piston edge. Its quite sharp.
The pins are just plain parallel type. Nothing fancy!
I lied on the price of the ringset tho.
They were 84 bucks for the chrome set. Still mighty good value tho.
Thos prices I got are not mates rates or anything either. I just bought them online from Precision International in Vic.
Available to anybody!!!
Cheers
