CYLINDER LABOR |
If you have more than 10,000 miles on your
stock cylinders, you're probably not far from burning oil (which hurts
performance, looks bad, damages valve guides, and may cause detonation
through increased compression and local hot spots due to thick carbon
build-up, as well as interruption of the flame front).
We advocate a process of flattening the base gasket surface with a thin
cut on the lathe, boring and honing with torque plates, aligning the
bore with the base, and finishing off with a very fine plateau finish.
Cylinders are then cleaned with hot soapy water (like everything else
inside your motor), dried with clean dry air, and coated with WD-40®.
Pistons are then test fitted, rings assembled, and loaded into the cylinder
by hand. Now you are ready to install your cylinders into the
engine.
Here's how:
Only oil the wrist pin when assembling the engine. The cylinders rings/pistons will be broken in by the time the engine reaches normal oil pressure. (Note: If you oil the piston rings or cylinder walls at assembly, they may never break in).
