mikechief Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Just kidding. I got a stock head its been shaved .030. Guy I got it from said it had a few nicks which it does big nicks. Along with the nicks there is what looks like a "rash ?". All on the left side squish band. Dude said the nicks were from chunk of spark plug he didn't mention the rashy lookn shit is that from deto ? Just on one side ? I was thinkin bout gluing some sand paper to an old piston to try to fix it ? Any pointers "other than buy a $300 cool head " would be great !

AKheathen Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 You guys suck . Close your eyes Let's pretend that I have a machine shop. Ok can you see my machine shop? How do I fix it ? put it in a machine to make a cool ash tray, and go shop for a coolhead, lol seriously, the thing was probably "milled" on a belt sander, making it taper to one side, and ther is 2 different size chambers. if you really want to salvage it, you really do need a machine shop to cut the chambers after resurfacing it. the squish band should not be the same angle as the piston, so that will not work. you will need to know squish clearance before cutting, and you might actually not have enough material left to recut. a few sponsors offer the service, too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheesandrider Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 If it is a stock head that has NEVER been miled or cut and chambered it can probably be saved. You will need to have a builder that knows what he is doing "cut and chamber" it and you will be good. If it has ever been milled or "cut and chambered" before, then you have a nice paperweight or ashtray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alf44 Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 $300 for a coolhead!! Way to much. I offer the modquad one piece with domes, orings, washers and acorn nuts for $245 SHIPPED to all members on BHQ. Check with us sponsors before buying a so called "good deal." Sometimes it looks like a good deal until the shipping and handling fees get tacked on. Pm me anytime for anything you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
