We’re dry assembling crank/crank carrier/engine cases and fitting a couple of pistons, then bolting a head on with two vales (inlet/exhaust) and the cam fitted to see if we need to machine more material from the valve reliefs. Moment of truth this- is there enough material on the piston crown to allow pockets deep enough for our larger valves and higher lift?
