Subject:      How to equalize head volume?
Comments: To: type2@type2.com
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Hi all:


I'm not terribly pleased with the closeness of the volumes of the
combustion chambers on my rebuilt heads -- 52cc to 57cc -- so I'm
thinking I should try and equalize things a bit.  But, I don't really
know how to do this.


Is a Dremel tool the appropriate tool to use?


If so, what "bit" or fixture do you use?


Do you do this with the valves in place, or removed?


TIA.
