Re: piston deck ss engine
Good! It's very clear in the rule book. Yes, you can use a thicker head gasket to compensate for the deck height being insufficient.
Class racer is full of good tech info . Thank! everybody for your help. Sincerely! |

Re: piston deck ss engine
You can mix and match deck and gasket thickness, you take deck height and gasket thickness and add together (i.e) .002 deck clearance .016 gasket totals .018 you can use any deck or gasket as long as when you are done piston and head are not less than .018 apart,but .018 is too close together to run without hitting,unless it's a briggs.
