Thanks for sharing. Do you think it would have lived with just .006" off? Is .002" enough to worry about one way or another?
Can you take .008 off the top of the pistons if you can't do it with head gaskets?




It "might" have lived at that point, but this little guy will push 28#'s of boost. That's quite a bit when you consider what's actually holding the head down. As far as the pistons go, with the way they're designed (crowned)it would me near impossible to cut them down.
