la bala Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 ditchman good friend, need to draw on your knowledge and wisdom. I have never had a head with hotspots skimmed. Would it be machined with the new hotspots in, or would the hotspots have to be ground to fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ditchman Posted February 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 i rekon skimming done OUT.......THE REASON IS THE hot spots are much thinner than they used to be and if you did them in....and they were skimmed it would thin them out even more................you can leave the roll pin in as they go deeper than the head..........anyway they are ny near impossible to get out.....then i would skim the shoulder of the hot spot ..to suit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul223 Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 if the head is warped in anyway you'd be hard pressed to cut the chamber to suit any unevenness with the idea of bringing it true. If the head wants the lightest of skims to clean it up then this really won't effect the swirl chamber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
