Closed chambers gone bad… that’s a wrap

Had a chance to measure each piston at TDC threw the numbers below, thinking I’m going to run .090 head gasket should get me close to the .040 quench going off the tallest piston. Crazy the numbers are all over the place for pistons that should be .018 above top deck.

Included a bunch of photos of heads and holes giggity! Happy Memorial Day friends.

#2= .045”
#4= .053”
#6= .047”
#8= .040”

#1= .027”
#3= .018”
#5= .025”
#7= .022”

All measurements taken from right below the valve relief slightly off center to not get into “bullet casing” these pistons are annoying for that reason.

Just look at one through seven there's a .005 variance end to end/front to back, but you have .009 on #3 and then .002 on #5 and .005 on # 7
Sure the deck is probably off .005 end to end and maybe. 009 bank to bank...but the rods are probably up to .010 or .020 variance in length.
.......The rods are different lengths....
