(1) correct, not out to the edge (2) I think KB expects (rightly so) a person to measure their (quench) clearance & mill the quench pad down to where it's right for each eng. that's what I'm doing on my 451.



This is what I did on my 446 motor for my RC. I ran the 184's with 915 heads with the pad cut to where they were .004 above deck and used a .044 gasket.
