warning on silvolite pistons
I just checked my deck hieght on my new engine.... .030 over 350 with silvolite hyper pistons..flat tops with 5cc valve reliefs ..Im at .045. it should of been between .020 and .025..turns out they make a rebuilders piston that has a different compression hieght to allow for block and head milling.. when i ordered the pistons i wanted a C/R of 9.8 to 1 with 64cc heads...well thats what i got...but now the pistons so far down the hole im going to have trouble with detonation....oh well, so much for maybe running a little laughing gas. I have 3 options...tear down the motor, and mill .025 off the deck...replace the pistons...or just build it the way it is.....since i am now poor...i think ill build it the way it is.
