    Head Gasket thickness recommendation

    The quench pads on my kb forged step dish pistons come up .015 out of the hole after square decking. What gasket thickness would be a good recommendation is the goal here. I did some searches on quench distance with steel rods and I see a wide range of what "experts" deem acceptable. This...

    Check out these bearings!

    This is the #3 main and #3 lower rod bearing out of the POS Dakota's old motor. hahaha Trashed!!!!! I'm amazed it still ran and that nothing spun. Amazingly the crank is not near as bad as the bearings. There are some scores I can catch a fingernail in, but the bearings took the brunt...

    Aluminum is the third most abundant element in the earth's crust under oxygen and silicon. I believe about 82,300 parts per million so I've read. So why the hell do we get banged so bad when we want a set of aluminum cylinder heads vs a set of Iron? Production cost? Pieces of sh*t on the...
