couldnt get squish any lower unless i didnt use a gasket , af advised me not to
Take no notice of AF... anyway what does he know....steve chapman wrote:couldnt get squish any lower unless i didnt use a gasket , af advised me not to
But really it does need to run at, or less than 1.5mm.... or it will more than likely suffer from premiture ignition ( Detonation ) causing a loss of power and possible overheating problems.... I run mine without a head gasket to bring the squish down but kept the base gasket on... and its been fine...
